Fujairah Municipality Congratulates Children with Environmental Theme

To mark the beginning of the new academic year, representatives from the Fujairah Municipality’s Department of Environmental Protection, General Services Administration and the Division of Awareness and Environmental Media visited a number of kindergartens and schools.

They were accompanied by Morjan, the Municipality’s environmental cartoon character, who congratulated the students on starting a new academic year and wished them every success.

To strike a festive note the visiting teams distributed sweets, balloons, stamps and posters and the children enjoyed ample opportunities to have their photograph taken with Morjan.

Ms. Fatima Al Kindi of the Media Department said that this programme helped to spread among the children an environmental awareness in a fun and enjoyable manner.

The children were easily engaged and absorbed in the activities and at each school the teachers and their students expressed their happiness and appreciation for this initiative from the Fujairah Municipality.

The programme included a visit to various institutions including kindergartens at Al Anfal and Al Duhaa and the primary schools: Braa’m Al Liman, Al Qarya, Al Ma’arefa and Al Etqan.

The visits took place between Sunday 11 September and Tuesday 13 September 2011.

Well done to the Fujairah Municipality for taking this positive initiative!
