This year's Earth Day was marked by a series of activities focused on creativity and sustainability. Pre-K to Grade 5 students dressed in earth-toned colors to celebrate the natural colors of the earth.
Students in Grades 1 through 5 participated in a recycled material art competition. Students presented projects made from repurposed materials, emphasizing the importance of recycling.
The Purple Penguins won the competition with 13 entries, earning 1300 house points. Their contributions ranged from bottle cap structures to cardboard sculptures, reflecting a strong commitment to the theme.
The Green Gators and Orange Owls tied for second place, each submitting 11 entries and earning 1100 house points. Their artworks included recycled paper collages and plastic bottle installations, showcasing their creativity and resourcefulness.
The Brown Bearcats came in third with 7 entries, earning 700 points. Despite having fewer entries, their projects highlighted their dedication and effort in promoting environmental awareness.
The Earth Day celebrations at Concordian International School provided an opportunity for students to engage with sustainability concepts and foster a sense of community through friendly competition. Earth day at Concordian was a fun day for Concordian students to engage in environmentally conscious creativity.
