Key Sustainability Message 

Suddenly, an owl flew down from a tall tree.

Owl: “People cut trees,” she said sadly.
 “We lose our homes.”

The students listened carefully.

Student 1: “Oh no… First rubbish, and now this?”

Student 2: “Animals need trees to live.”

Student 3: “Trees give us clean air, too!”

Mole: “Yes. Trees are very important for everyone.”

Owl: “Without trees, we have no homes. The forest becomes empty and quiet.”

Student 1: “We understand now.”

Student 2: “We will tell other people to stop cutting trees.”

Student 3: “We will plant new trees!”

Owl: “That gives us hope.”

Mole: “When you protect the forest, you protect all of us.”

All Students: “We promise to keep the forest clean and safe! We will protect trees and help nature grow!”

A deer spoke softly.

“There is no clean water,” said the deer. “We are thirsty.”

The students looked at the small river nearby. The water was dirty and full of plastic.

Student 1: “The water is polluted.”

Student 2: “Animals need clean water to live.”

Student 3: “People need clean water too.”

Mole: “When water is dirty, plants, animals, and people can get sick.”

Owl: “Water is life.”

The students wanted to help.

Student 1: “First, we will clean the river.”

Student 2: “We will tell people not to throw rubbish in the water.”

Deer: “Thank you. Clean water gives us life and strength.”

All Students: “We promise to protect water and keep it clean!”

“This is air pollution,” said the students.

Student 1:“Oh no! Look at all these cars and the dirty air! I didn’t expect the city to be so polluted.”

Student 2: You’re right. The smoke from the cars makes the air unhealthy. It is hard to breathe

Student 3: And it’s so noisy! The traffic and horns hurt my ears. This is bad for people and nature.

Student 1: What can we do to help?

Student 2:We can walk or ride our bikes instead of using the car for short distances

Student 3 : We can also use public transport and ask our parents to do the same.”

Student 1: We can plant more trees at school. Trees help clean the air.

Student 1: Yes! And we can make posters about air pollution and share messages on social media to persuade more people take action against air pollution

Student 2: I promise to use my bike more 

Student 3 : If we all make small changes, the air can become cleaner

Student 1: Our city can be healthier and quieter
