Buk bilong Pikinini (BbP) proudly marked World Water Day on March 22nd across all its library learning centres under the theme "Water for Peace.” Students were engaged in a series of fun activities which included arts and craft, water balloon relays, water saving relays, cooking and cleaning activities, fishing in pools and of course hand washing. BbP stated that through these fun yet informative activities, students delved deep into the intricate workings of the water cycle, its significance within the ecosystem, filtration processes, human consumption patterns, and its direct impact on health. “We emphasized the critical need for water conservation, highlighting the necessity of preserving this precious resource for future generations.” BbP also acknowledged their donors who generously supported them on the day. “Colgate Palmolive donated Protex soap bars for our students in Port Moresby and Lae library learning centres to do handwashing activities as clean water is used for hand hygiene, which is important in prevention of illnesses such as intestinal worms, TB, cold and flu, etc.” “The Colgate Palmolive education teams also visited our Lae, Unitech and Port Moresby 6 Mile library learning centres (LLCs) to do hand washing demonstrations of "scrub and rub" to our students.” “We also had visits from CPL and Lae Biscuit companies to our Lae, Unitech LLC.” “CPL talked to the parents and children about vitamins and issued deworming tablets and Pain & Fever oral suspension, and gave BbP parents a 15% discount on the purchase of vitamins.” “Lae Biscuit Company, who visited the Lae Unitech LLC, showcased their new products of Toti Biscuit and Kimchii and chicken noodles.” BbP expressed their heartfelt gratitude to all those who contributed to making World Water Day a resounding success, reiterating the importance of collective efforts in promoting education, health, and environmental awareness among young learners.
