Our school garden, the source of healthy eating. How our planet was yesterday, is not how it is today. What are we doing to help it change for the better? There are a lot of things that affect our planet in a bad way. Hopefully, if everyone gets involved in protecting our environment, we can help our planet to change for the better. Schools need to be practical areas of protecting our environment. Akeza, Bryan and Ally are demonstrating a part of what is done at Umubano Primary School to help the world to be a better place for all biodiversity. This is our school acrostic environmental slogan: Encourage the Nations Via Instructions to Respectfully Observe the Need to Maintain our Environment by Never Littering Trash Learning in the environment is good for the brain, as we look at the tiny butterflies in the air with their frail blue wings, the birds looking at the sky and singing their sweetly loving songs. It breaks classrooms boredom. Sitting under trees that provide us with their natural shade. How good it is to enjoy our environment after having our lunch made up of fruits and vegetables. Healthy Living: “You reap what you sow” POEM: All Things in Our Environment Bright and Beautiful
All things bright and beautiful All creatures great and small All things wise and wonderful The lord God made them all Each little flower that opens Each little bird that sings He made their glowing colours He made their tiny wings The purple headed mountains The river running by The sunset and the morning That brightens up the sky The cold wind in the winter The pleasant summer sun The ripe fruits in the garden He made them every one He gave us eyes to see them And lips that we might tell How great is God almighty Who has made all things well Let’s make our nation a home!

A primary two child, observing seed germination “Tell me I will forget, involve me I will remember for longer”. For a child to retain knowledge for a long period of time, he/she must be given a chance to be involved and to demonstrate using the body and natural materials. At Umubano Primary School, we encourage learners to do many activities individually to enhance mastery of a concept using natural resources as shown above. We also encourage our students to interact with environment to relate knowledge acquired from class with the environment for wholly developed students. Students working on locally made materials Just as the Rwandan curriculum clearly stipulates; a holistically developed child will in the future be able to stand firm against all bad whichever global changes that may take place. This will also help them to learn to take care of the community he/she lives in.
A good education system should not put all focus on theory work but on what a child is able to do with their own hands. Eg: art and craft. Practical works help learners to develop independency skills and brain hence they can learn faster. By: Teacher Constance |
