Project E.C.O (Educate. Challenge. Organise) GOLD Award
The team embarked on a 6-month-long project, dedicating their efforts to heighten dengue prevention awareness in both the school and the community, with the aim of reducing dengue cases in the neighbourhood.
Executing a two-tier strategy, the team first created a dengue prevention video from scratch, involving their school mascot. The video was shared during the school-wide assembly session, where the team reiterated the importance of collective efforts in dengue prevention. They also set up various environmental booths during the annual Science & Green Carnival to engage their peers in dengue prevention and environmental conservation through games, quizzes, and flyers.
To extend their reach to the community, the team designed post cards and distributed them to residents during the annual Estate Collection Day. Partnering PCF kindergarten, door-to-door visits were also conducted to educate residents on B-L-O-C-K steps. The project had heightened awareness in residents to take dengue preventive measures.
