LCI Peace Poster Contest [PPC] – Our World, Our Future

 
Date: 16 October 2013
Time: 8am - 11pm
Venue: SJKC Sungai Buloh

With a tender age of 13, Jenny Park believes that the United Nation [UN] and the Nobel Prize winners would be the hopeful lots for world peace. She had her belief clearly expressed in her peace poster, which had earned her the
Grand Prize of Lions Club International [LCI] Peace Poster Contest [PPC] 2012-13.

This year the theme for PPC is “Our World, Our Future”. Our club had the contest held at SJKC Sg. Buloh, the only Chinese school in Sg Buloh Village. There were 38 participants, one of them from SK Assunta.

Children from various social economic backgrounds would naturally see the world differently, and therefore have different dreams for their future. For those come from the better off family background may think of their future world with advance technology, better environment and peaceful world. For those from the other end, all these could be luxurious; eliminating poverty and making famine a history may be on top of their list.

Could we ‘lead’ the children to think of “Our World, Our Future” ? Or shall we just leave it to them to explore their very own version of   
“Our World, Our Future” ?
