Sunway Lagoon reached out to 980 children to promote 3Rs elements through edutaining programme
Sunway Lagoon recently collaborated with Pelangi and Q-dees Kindergarten
for its Phase 1 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Education Reach Out
programme. The initiative aimed to provide an early learning experience for
pre-schoolers on effective waste disposal as part of Sunway Lagoon’s commitments
to support the SDG Goals.
A short briefing was provided by the Sunway Lagoon team at the
commencement of the event to enlighten the pre-schoolers on the 3Rs elements
and its contribution towards reducing pollution and conserving natural
resources, landfill space and energy. The students then had a hands-on
experience in waste segregation through interesting and fun-filled activities.
The edutaining programme has since empowered a total of 980 children
from 10 kindergartens to incorporate the ‘Reduce, Reuse and Recycle (3Rs)’
elements as the basis for sustainable waste management.
“Education is the key to build awareness of
the Sustainable Development Goals. We see the importance of inculcating good
3Rs habits from a young age as it is the first step in reducing waste. Phase 2
will see Sunway Lagoon collaborating with Smart Reader as well as Real Kids to
further its commitment in promoting 3Rs concept amongst the younger generation,”
said Sean Choo, General Manager of Sunway Lagoon.
SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer,
the Nickelodeon characters paid a surprise visit to conclude the children’s Best
Day Ever, in conjunction with the Sunway Lagoon Nickelodeon Raya campaign.
Aside
from the SDG Education Reach Out programme, the Asia’s Premier Park also
advocates sustainability through numerous events in recent years such as the
World Earth Day, Earth Hour Blackout Fest, Fishing Frenzy, World Animal Day
events and the Wildlife Heroes program which created awareness on wildlife and
nature conservation among the younger generation.
