In Art Card Competition, children from 9 primary schools depicted on a 16x16cm art card their ideas of a small habit change they can make at home to save the environment. Casuarina, East Coast, and Chong Zhen Primary schools swept the top 3 prizes. Together with other top 7 cards, 500 sets of the top 10 designs will be printed and distributed to all primary schools in Singapore. The idea is to have children teaching children and spreading the message on environment issues.
