Firstly, environmental sustainability which explain that natural resources like water, trees, fossil fuels are limited. By using them wisely, we can help to ensure that these resources last for generations and prevent unreversible environmental damage. We can see a lot of awareness posters regarding the environmental sustainability around my school.

Besides that, social sustainability took a major part in the social life of the students at my school. All students were given fair treatments and opportunities despite their gender or background. For example, each student receive the same education, free medical checkups and chances of becoming a leader.

Furthermore, my school recognize that economic stability must be aligned with the environmental and social factors. This basically means everyone in the school sector get treated fairly and receive the same privilege. For example, teachers and school staff can enjoy foods at the school cafeteria as well as students, use the toilets provided, etc.

Lastly, I learned that small practical actions can actually make differences. My school encourage us students to bring our own reusable water bottle, separating our waste and participating in eco-friendly projects. This significantly reduce the waste amount and keep the school environment looking fresh and clean.
