The service learning for our class involves the recycling of plastic bottles, whereby each student is tasked to spend a fixed amount of time just to pick up plastic bottles from the school canteen and to recycle them. From this service learning I realized how effortless recycling can be and that how we, as teenagers can contribute to our community just by such simple means. I learnt that despite the minimal sacrifices that we had to make just to commit ourselves to this service learning, it was all worth it because when we look back and witness how much we've achieved by spending that short period of time daily, we accomplished a lot and have done a great deal to help the environment and the community.
Well, the best thing that stood out to me was the time we had with our fellow friends while doing this service learning. Through such times, we were able to forge stronger bonds among each other and establish greater friendships, while we're contributing to help the environment by recycling the plastic bottles. It was a win-win situation for us all because we got to know each better and simultaneously, conducted ourselves well to contribute to the service learning project. Well, I learnt that even though this service learning project might be boring to some, but we all can still make this a memorable experience for all of us because what's bitter to endure is sweet to remember and that after everything is done, we can look back and be grateful to those who had worked hard to make this project a success.
Yes of course, I'll be looking forward to be involved in potential overseas service learning projects to at the same time, broaden my horizons about this world as well as to help people outside of Singapore.
