The One Person One Flower Scheme, implemented at our school in November 2023 by Head of Drama, Ms Nicola Ray, who has a deep commitment to environmental care, proved to be a remarkable initiative that left a lasting impact on our students. As part of this scheme, each student was presented with an African Marigold seedling, courtesy of the LCSD (Leisure and Cultural Services Department), to promote greening awareness and foster a genuine interest in plant cultivation.
The primary objective of the scheme was to encourage school greening campaigns, instilling in our students a deep understanding of the significance of greening while nurturing their passion for growing plants. Throughout the months, students had the opportunity to care for their seedlings, eagerly awaiting the day when their efforts would bear fruit.
March marked the culmination of the scheme, and we are delighted to receive so many wonderful photos of the children’s efforts. We extend our commendation to all the students who participated, regardless of the outcome of their plants. The valuable lessons learned and experiences gained from this endeavor are immeasurable, regardless of whether their plants thrived or faced challenges.
Beyond the technical aspects of plant growth and nurturing, the scheme also imparted crucial life lessons. One Year 4 student expressed that the programme taught him the virtue of patience. Waiting patiently for his flower to grow instilled in him a sense of perseverance and the understanding that growth takes time.
Looking ahead, we anticipate the extension of our greening endeavors at our school. The success and impact of the One Person One Flower Scheme has laid a solid foundation for future projects aimed at enhancing our school’s environment through various greening initiatives. We aspire to create an environment where our students can actively engage in hands-on activities that foster a sense of environmental stewardship and cultivate a love for nature.
As we move forward, we remain committed to nurturing a generation of environmentally conscious individuals who understand the importance of greening and are passionate about creating a sustainable future.
