The Future We Want – A Lesson from Our Young Guardians
“The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.” – Robert Swan
This thought became reality today as Grade 3 Red presented their powerful morning assembly “The Future We Want.” With confidence and clarity, our young learners reminded us that the responsibility of protecting the Earth does not rest on others—it rests on us.
From saving trees 🌳 to conserving water 💧, and from protecting nature to adopting eco-friendly habits, the students voiced the simple yet urgent truth: every small step matters. Their performance was not just an act on stage; it was a realistic call for action that speaks to each of us.
Often, we wait for change to come from world leaders, organizations, or someone “greater” than us. But as our children showed us today, real change begins in our homes, our schools and our everyday choices. Whether it’s turning off a tap, planting a tree, avoiding plastic, or reusing resources, these little acts shape the sustainable future we all dream of.
Our Head of School, Ma’am Aisha Ali, acknowledged the strength of this message and appreciated the way our students carried it with such grace and conviction. It was heartwarming to see our parents present, encouraging and supporting the young voices of tomorrow.
This assembly was not just a performance, it was a reminder. The future we want is not far away; it is built by what we do today. And it is not someone else’s duty, it is ours.
Together, let’s not just hope for a better tomorrow, but act for it. Because we are the ones who will save Planet Earth.
