#BeRemarkable Sustainability Campaign was launched on 2nd November 2019 during the Eco-Community Day at the Secondary Campus in Equine Park. The campaign signified the start of our journey of environmental stewardship to build a sustainable future through its strategic intents, education programmes and actions in nine eco-core areas of Nature and Biodiversity, Climate Change, Energy, Healthy Living, Transport, Waste & Litter, Water, Global Citizenship and Our Eco-Culture. These eco-themes are linked to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and are developed through four pillars in school. The campaign also kickstarted the November Giving of our Foundation. Funds are raised from the Green Thumb Project to support the Foundation’s community area of funding. It also launched our Inter-school Community Project with SMK Seri Kembangan, a local secondary government school arranged through the partnership with PINTAR Foundation. We also unveiled our new fabric and e-waste recycling bins. The campaign was well supported by fifteen eco-partners in Malaysia with talks, workshops and exhibitions held. The day also included a Green Generation Talk presented by a panel of eco-champions comprises of our alumni YAM Tengku Zatashah and Baida Hercus; the Deputy British High Commissioner to Malaysia Mr. David Thomas and our eco-partners- Kloth Cares and Biji-biji Initiative. Be inspired by them. Watch the video here. Our sustainability journey continues with workshops, talks, training and activities in school. Procurements are now focused on the use of environmental friendly materials. More recycling bins, eWaste and fabric recycling bins are available in school. New building projects are designed to be eco-friendly, use of solar panels is increased and rain water is collected for plant watering. The Give Life Project has also created higher environmental and philanthropy awareness among students with some Year 6 students helping to raise funds as part of their Year 6 Challenge. The students have also conducted environmental reviews and developed impactful action plans. With just only five months into the campaign, the impact of our sustainability journey is now evident.
