Sandema Kids Wage War on Plastic Pollution

Students from three schools gathered at Sandema Preparatory School on June 5th for World Environment Day. The National Commission for Civic Education organized the event to teach kids about plastic pollution. Jeffery Adda from the NCCE spoke about Ghana's waste problems. He said the country makes 840,000 tons of plastic trash each year. Only 9.5 percent gets recycled properly.

The students learned about reducing, reusing and recycling plastic materials. Teachers showed them how to sort waste at home and school. Kids performed plays and poems about environmental protection. They acted out scenes showing how pollution hurts animals and people. The performances taught families and friends about keeping Ghana clean.

Success International School won the competition with the best presentation. Sandema Preparatory came second and Ayieta Junior High placed third. Judges scored the teams on creativity and teamwork. Each school received certificates for participating. The event helped children become environmental champions who can teach others about protecting nature.
