LEHF佛山霍利斯国际学校：预备部环保大使项目，培养环保领袖

Swipe Left for English 

佛山市霍利斯外籍人员子女学校致力于培养富有同情心的未来全球领袖，他们不仅具备多门学科的专业知识，而且有对自然环境的责任意识。可持续发展教育是我们学校课程的重要课题之一，我们希望能让学生们都意识到人类对环境的影响以及保护生态系统的紧迫性和必要性。在佛山霍利斯，我们从预备部阶段开始培养学生的环保意识。

我们在预备部开展了“环保大使项目”，来自不同年级的学生化身成为环保大使。他们志同道合，都热衷于环境保护和可持续发展。他们参与环保行动的规划、决策和监督，动员其他学生们的广泛参与，为学校、本地和全球社区创造积极影响。

在这篇文章中，我们邀请了预备部 Connor Lewis 老师来给大家深入介绍这个“环保大使项目”。

Mr Lewis

“我们的环保大使与世界各地的年轻人一样怀着相同的目标理念 —— 积极采取行动应对环境危机。我们之前的几代人已经给地球环境带来严重的破坏，我们希望能够采取行动，做出自己的贡献。”

佛山霍利斯的环保大使是谁？

01

Daijing, Y4

“我们需要积极行动起来，落实到每天生活中。”

02

Alina, Y5

“我经常思考如何保护自然，并提醒他人一起爱护环境。我想让大家都停止浪费！”

03

Tom, Y5

“保护环境、植树造林、洁净空气、绿色生活，你也可以一起参与！”

04

Barry, Y5/6

“我将呼吁同学们一起进行回收利用，例如制作一个废纸垃圾桶。我也会努力照顾预备部花园，让它充满生机。”

这些环保大使们对环境保护充满热情，在校园内推广可持续发展理念和做法，为预备部的学生树立了榜样形象，并获得了许多学生的支持。

我们是如何选出环保大使们的呢？

学生领导力是佛山霍利斯的重要培养目标，这一点在我们的环保大使项目中得到充分体现。环保大使们的申请在新学年入学后开始，申请学生需要写一篇短文来陈述他们为什么能够胜任这个“岗位”。然后Lewis 先生仔细审阅申请材料，挑选出最具热情、同理心和创新精神的学生，来领导校园的可持续发展行动。

到目前为止，环保大使们做了些什么呢？

环保大使们致力于在佛山霍利斯校园里推广可持续发展，组织和发起了不同形式的环保主题活动，例如：

每两周召开一次环保委员会会议，讨论我们注意到的环保问题以及我们能做出的改变

提出了地球日主题展览的一些想法，包括摊位邀请和由学生主导的游戏

建立了预备部花园，教导其他学生如何悉心照料花园及其中的动植物

与其他同学们一起照顾校园里的植物和动物（例如清洁鱼缸和浇水）

管理预备部公共空间的环保告示板，更新最新的环保信息

在预备部所有师生面前进行了一个以校园可持续发展为主题的演讲

鼓励其他学生关注可持续发展，并提出我们在日常校园生活中可以采取的措施

建立并管理堆肥箱，每天收集果皮等废弃物并投放于箱中，使其变成堆肥，并照顾箱里面的蚯蚓

活动预告！

佛山霍利斯预备部的环保大使们正在策划和筹备4月22日的地球日主题展览和环保集市活动，给大家展示他们的项目成果。活动面向所有人开放，我们诚挚邀请您和您的家人一起参加，了解更多关于可持续性的知识，并支持我们环保大使所付出的努力。

预备部花园项目

环保大使们最重要的成就之一是我们的预备部花园。通过这个花园项目，学生们学习各种松土、种植、浇水、施肥以及利用光线和蚯蚓促进植物快速生长等技巧。他们不仅学习了园艺知识，还认识到植物保育和环境保护的重要性，并串联到生物、地理和全球思维等主题的知识。

我们需要马上行动起来，推动可持续发展。在佛山霍利斯，我们通过预备部的“环保大使项目”培养具有环保意识和责任感的学生和未来领袖。他们已经在行动，我们也不能落伍。从身边的小事情做起，从而推动我们的社区、学校以及社会进行绿色环保变革——大胆行动、广泛创新、人人有责。一起来创建我们更加美好的未来！

LEH International School Foshan is dedicated to nurturing compassionate future global leaders who are not only knowledgeable in various disciplines but also well-equipped with a sense of environmental commitment. With Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) being one of the key concepts of the school’s curriculum, we seek to instil in students an understanding of their impact on the planet and the need to care for our environment. This starts from the beginning of Prep School, with our youngest students. 

One of the ways that we achieve this goal at Prep School is through the Eco Ambassadors programme, which is made up of a group of Prep students from various year groups who are passionate about environmental conservation and sustainability. The Eco Ambassadors are engaged in action planning, decision-making and monitoring success, leading to a wide range of whole school initiatives and events, which aim to have an impact on both the school and the local and global community.

In this article, we invite our Prep Teacher Mr Connor Lewis who leads the Eco Ambassadors team to share more information about these ambassadors with you. 

Mr Lewis

“The Eco Ambassadors work with the same goal in mind that young children all over the world are waking up to – Taking action. Generations before us have led the planet to a critical point where the planet is in danger, and we want to take action to change that.”

Who are the Eco Ambassadors? 

01

Daijing, Y4

“We need to do things to change. You can make changes every day!”

02

Alina, Y5

“I can always think how to save nature and remind other people to save nature too! What I want to change is stop waste!”

03

Tom, Y5

“We need to do things to change. You can make changes every day!”

04

Barry, Y5/6

"I will help my class to recycle and I can make a paper bin. I will help LEHF by working on making a beautiful garden with lots of life."

The Eco Ambassadors, fuelled by their passion for the environment, are setting an exemplary standard for their peers and tirelessly promoting sustainability within the school. Their efforts have garnered the support of many other Prep School students.

How are they chosen? 

Student leadership is an essential part of LEH Foshan, and this couldn’t be clearer than in our proud Eco Ambassador’s. Eco Ambassadors are selected by application at the start of the academic year, and applicants are asked to write a short essay describing why they are a perfect applicant for the job. Application forms are reviewed by Mr Lewis, and those who are deemed to be the most passionate, understanding and innovative students are chosen to lead sustainability in the school. 

What have they done so far? 

The Eco Ambassadors have been instrumental in promoting sustainability at LEH Foshan Prep School. They have initiated a variety of eco-centric activities, for example: 

They have meetings fortnightly to discuss what we notice and what we can change.

They came up with some of the ideas for the earth day exhibition, including asking stalls to come in and having student-led games.

They founded the LEHF Prep Garden and helped teach other children how to use it respectfully.

They look after the plants and animals in the school (cleaning fish tanks and watering plants) with support from their peers.

They maintain a notice board in the Prep School, where they add new information and updates.

They spoke in an assembly in front of the whole Prep School talking about what sustainability is and what we do about it in LEHF.

They keep children motivated about sustainability and remind them of ways we can support this in our classroom.

They founded the compost heap, making sure children compost fruit waste every day and look after the earthworms in it.

Mark your calendar!

As part of their ongoing efforts to raise awareness for sustainability, the Eco Ambassadors are now working diligently on an upcoming event – an Earth Day Exhibition and Eco Market on 22 April. The event is open to public and we invite you and your family to take this opportunity to learn more about sustainable practices and support our Eco Ambassadors' endeavours.

Prep School Garden Project

One of their most significant achievements is the establishment of the Prep School Garden, which has now become an essential part of the school’s sustainability efforts. Through the garden project, students are taught various techniques such as loosening soil, planting, watering, fertilising, and utilising light and earthworms to aid in the rapid growth of plants. Not only does this initiative impart knowledge on gardening, but it also highlights the significance of cultivating plants and caring for the environment, thus connecting it to other disciplines like biology, geography, and global perspectives.

The time for action on sustainability is now! The Eco Ambassadors programme at LEH Foshan Prep School is creating a new generation of environmentally conscious and responsible students and future leaders. They are taking action, and we should too. Every small action counts, but we must also push for bigger changes in our communities, schools, and beyond. Let's be part of the green revolution, act boldly, innovate broadly, and implement equitably for a partnership for the planet. It's time to take action and be accountable for a better future, our future.
