Green Greetings, Everyone!
Thank you again for being wonderful supporters of your lovely students during the Earth Day celebrations on Wednesday 22nd April.
All student actions are acknowledged and participants have been provided with e-certificates as evidence of their active participation.
As for the winners of the competitions, it was hard to choose just 3 from each category as all the students' efforts achieved high scores. However, in the end, the judges made the tough decisions and selected winners from the English and Indonesian sections in each of the categories.
A big 'Thank You' to Ibu Melanie from Secondary and Ibu Anik from Primary for taking on the difficult roles of Earth Day Judges.
We would also like to thank Hero Supermarket and Periplus for being the sponsors of our competition this year.
Here are the winners of the Letter and Poem Competitions, in no particular order:
Letter to the President
Dear Mr. Jokowi,
Hello Mr. President, how are you doing? Well, good and healthy I hope. I would really appreciate if you are going to read this and I would be honored for you to read this.
Anyways, in this letter, I would like to address my concern about the littering and trash that is happening on our beloved Indonesian land. Right now I am seeing that during the pandemic nobody is littering and are always putting their trash in the correct place but before this, trash was everywhere because so many people were littering and not putting their trash in the correct place. Why is this like that? Is it the rules that are not strict enough? Is it because our Indonesian citizens need to learn more discipline? What is it? I would really like to know about this and would be very thankful for your answer.
I hope you and your family stay strong and healthy throughout this pandemic, please keep on doing the great things you do Mr. President and I thank you from the deepest place in my heart for reading this letter.
Best Regards,

Surat untuk BAPAK PRESIDEN JOKOWI
Tanggal 20 April 2020
Halo nama saya: Niki dari sekolah globaljaya kelas 3.
Sehubungan dengan situasi dan kondisi terkait penetapan COVID 19,surat ini saya tulis sebagai wujud cinta kami kepada Bapak Presiden beserta jajaran keluarga kami dan seluruh rakyat indonesia menyampaikan bahwa agar setiap negara menghimbau atau mengambil langkah lebih ketat lagi menanganin COVID 19. Mengevakuasi penegahan COVID 19 nasional menjadi 7 langkah sederhana dan tepat yang mudah dipahamin dan diikuti seperti :
Kami harap COVID 19 cepat berlalu dan kita kembali beraktifitas kembali sepeti biasanya.
Bumi Sang Hijau
Kita hidup di planet ini
Dengan bersama, dan tidak sendiri
Menemani tanaman dan binatang
Dunia hijau seperti pohon berbatang
Rumput dan pohon tumbuh dengan makmur
Binatang tumbuh senang di timur
Namun, sekarang manusia merusak
Membunuh binatang, untuk dijual dan memasak
Menebang pohon untuk kertas dan uang
Mengotori laut setelah air dibuang
Maka, kami harus berubah
Membuka kebaikan seperti membuka jubah
Sebelum bertindak, ayo meninjau
Agar tetap menjadi
“Bumi Sang Hijau”

Bumiku
Kita cuma punya satu Bumi
Ayo kita jaga Bumi ini
Bumi yang aku cintai
Marilah kita sayangi
Bumiku tempat hidupku
Bumiku dengan langit biru
Bumiku dengan hutan hijau
Bumiku aku akan selalu menjagamu
Earth day poem by Celine 4a
Nature is great!
I wake up to the sunshine shining through my bedroom window
Outside my flowers are colorful, like violet, rose, and indigo!
My room is full of colors, red, yellow, blue, green, much more!
My home is very natury, from the ceiling to the floor,
I'm supposed to water the plants, and I don’t think it's a chore!
Even though I have a lot of plants and trees, It's always such a breeze!
I like to see my fellow friend, Gary, but today he has a frown, Unless I turn upside down!
If you would like to visit me, make sure you have boots!
If you really want a snack, just pick a fruit!
I make sure to care for my plants, so none of them turn black!
So I have a swell time, In the back.
The sun cheers me up and brings me high in the sky.
And I water the plants while I fly!
My water has run short, but not before making a beautiful rainbow!
I float down below to see a beautiful rose!
I make sure to get water for its soil!
In our family we don't use oil, only cooking oil yes indeed!
We use solar power very much. It is very much agreed.
Earth Day
Earth day, a day of nature
Help clean up dirty water vapor
Earth day is to protect the environment
If you don’t participate it would be a huge embarrassment
Please help the animals, they are dying
If animals go extinct people will start crying
The earth is flooding with pollution
Since we are the cause we have to find the solution
We need to help the people who clean this up
Let’s do this with joy like a baby bear cub
Reuse plastic bottles, cups and bags to prevent making a lot of waste
Earth needs our help to take care of it
Use less electricity, gasoline, and plastic
Scrap papers are to be reused
Everyone should care for our earth
Reduce consumption, waste and pollution
Encourage people around you to save our earth
Do not litter, put trash in trash cans
Underwater, the fish need help too
Share our environment with other living things
Earthworms can help by decomposing soil
Recycle usable items
Eating natural food will make our earth happy
Clean up the trash people drop
You can help too by planting more trees
Choose the right thing to do
Let the sun shine brightly on our earth
Everything that helps the earth will make it live forever and ever
Thank you!
