Children’s show for the World Environment Day

Urednik Sustainability

On Friday, 11 June 2021, a children’s show was held at 10:45 a.m. on the playground of the Plitvička Jezera Primary School in Mukinje. The show, titled “Our green world”, was performed by the “Smješko” theatre, and younger children from the Plitvička Jezera Primary School and the Slapić Kindergarten (Korenica and Mukinje) attended, around 50 children in total.

This cheerful, outdoor eco-educational theatrical performance teaches preschool children and younger schoolchildren about proper recycling and ecology in an interesting and fun way. It touches upon recycling using interactive play to teach children about nature conservation, steps they can take to reduce the amount of trash, ways of recycling unnecessary things, and the types of recyclable waste.

An interesting and impressive performance by academic actress Mirta Zečević taught the children how Earth was created, what rain is, and how the first life arose. But our beautiful Earth needs our help… People have created too much garbage and are constantly polluting Earth… The message of the play is: Let us learn all about waste separation together with Earth!

In this way, by teaching the young to care for the environment and preserve Earth, we celebrate World Environment Day together: Plitivička Jezera National Park, Slapić Kindergarten, and Plitvička Jezera Primary School.
