Recently some voluntary activities have been organized by our school to help raise the awareness of
protecting animals among us teenagers.
Last Sundaymorning, the students of Grade One gathered at the school gate, and then went to the zoo that is
located near our school. Upon arrival, we took active part in various activities. Some were busy getting rid of the
trash, making the animals’ living areas clean and comfortable. Others told people knowledge about animals and
called on them to protect the endangered species. When we saw visitors throwing food at animals, wewould go
over and advise them not to do it.
Though tired out, we were delighted that we made contributions to helping keep the zoo tidy and educating
people about animals, which are beneficial not only to us students but also to society.
