A group of students came up with the idea of making a school club to help save the environment. Tanya Brunton, Alicia Morton, Gina Montgomery, Clive Forsyth, Jim O'Sullivan and Carl Johnson created the Nature Madness Club and won the award for the best student work.
At first their club only had 30 members, but word soon got around that Nature Madness was fun and less than a month later they had over 300 students. Now, they are thinking of asking for the help of students from other schools.
Nature Madness members took part in lots of after-school activities. They took classes to find out about pollution, recycling and conservation. The whole team helped to make the classes more interesting by using pictures and videos and so on. After that, the members organised different events and activities such as recycling or clean-up days, planting trees, and helping stray animals.
The mayor gave each student a gold medal for their good work. Their teacher, Barbara Mac Alpine, said at the ceremony, "I'm very proud of my students. They show that you don't have to wait until you're grown up to do important things."
Entertainment is important as it brings people together and is a good way for the entire family to bond. It diverts people’s attention from their demanding lives and amuses them in their leisure time. Usually, entertainment is fun, enjoyable and pleasurable. Entertainment can take various forms including music, drama, storytelling, movie, sports, dance and traditional performances. As life gets increasingly busy, it becomes more difficult for people to spend time with their loved ones. Thus, it is necessary to keep everyone entertained to ensure a relaxing time when a family break does become feasible. Entertainment provides a way to break away from everyday humdrum activity and enjoy a refreshing moment together. Entertainment brings happiness, which is a fundamental and powerful medicine that aids health and wellbeing. It is said “when you are happy, you have everything.” Happiness can even reduce stress and tension. Movies, music and TV series can all create joy in people’s lives. When watching or listening, members of the audience tend to forget the snags, miseries, worries and difficulties of their own lives. With so many sources of entertainment now available, people have many options to choose from in their precious leisure time. Perhaps the best option is to focus on those forms of entertainment that are educational or inspiring, and which encourage people to achieve success amid their existing or perceived difficulties.
