Green Month ♻️

Join us as we embark on a journey of sustainability, of being more careful with our choices towards the environment, and building habits that preserve our Earth and our future. The month of March is “Green Month”, wherein together as a school community we will lay greater emphasis on building environment-friendly habits.

We kicked off the first of the events – ‘Green Day’ - by wearing GREEN on Monday. Elementary Leadership Club and volunteers from Secondary addressed the assemblies this week raising awareness for the need to reduce waste and conserve water and electricity. Hold tight, lots of fun activities and challenges are lined up for this month! Can we do a whole day without using any electrical appliances? You bet we can!

Biomimicry projects

Biomimicry is the practice of learning from and mimicking the strategies found in nature to solve human problems, emulating natural designs and processes to find innovative and sustainable solutions.
Our middle school STEM class researched some of the problems that we face in the UAE: the high salt content in the oceans 🌊, how to go about reforesting the desert areas 🏜🌴, and the problem of litter 🗑.
The groups investigated different ways that nature deals with similar issues, and using biomimicry, they suggested strategies and processes that would help solve these human problems in our communities and region.
The projects were well researched, and the solutions put forward by our STEM students were excellent in their emulation of nature and in their multi-faceted approach.

LifePlus Quality of the month

Each month, WellSpring focuses on one of our #9QualitiesForLife. February was the month of Persistence - overcoming obstacles in order to reach my goal.
Students who displayed the quality of persistence were recognized during assembly.
