CSR: Premiere Academy Students Intensify Community Service With ‘Clean Up Lugbe’ Exercise

‎
‎In a demonstration of sustained spirit of community service and good corporate social responsibility (CSR), students and staff of Premiere Academy, Lugbe, Abuja, have staged another edition of the one-day Clean Up Lugbe Community Service project.
‎
‎The project has been a regular annual activity on the school’s roster designed to promote environmental cleanliness and community responsibility. It has continued to stand out as the most consistent private sector reinforcement of the Clean Environment Campaign of the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) that aims to improve the levels of city-wide cleanliness in Abuja and environs.
‎
‎The school, in a press statement by its Principal, Mr. Chris Akinsowon, stated that beyond the immediate impact on the environment, the Lugbe clean-up exercise has continued to serve as an avenue for continually educating students, staff members, and the host community about the significance of environmental stewardship, promoting health and well-being, and inspiring them to become lifelong advocates for sustainable living.
‎
‎“Through this initiative, we continue to demonstrate care for the community, the environment and the people. By engaging our students in hands-on activities of cleaning the environment, they are conditioned to appreciate the positive impact that their actions can have on the environment and the community. Over the years, the feedback we get is that this experience has always sparked a sense of ownership and responsibility in the students, thereby further empowering them to become lifetime advocates for sustainable living,” he submitted.
‎
‎The school also pledged to continue organising similar initiatives, collaborating with local organisations, integrating environmental education into its curriculum and equipping the students with the knowledge and skills needed to be lifelong champions of a clean, and healthier environment.
‎
‎“Premiere Academy is committed to developing the total child. We believe that children should not only be academically prepared, but they should also be well-rounded individuals who are prepared for life. This is why we will continue to offer a variety of programmes, activities and other learning opportunities to help our students develop their physical, emotional, social, and intellectual skills as best as possible,” Mr. Akinsowon pledged.
