BREAZE Inc. is again holding its Children’s Writing Competition to celebrate World Environment Day - 5 June 2023. We hope teachers can use the competition as an opportunity for classroom 
talk about the natural environment and why we celebrate World Environment Day and the wider importance of the natural environment and the need to conserve and protect it. Teachers and parents may find the World Environment Day website helpful in talking to children about the topic. This year’s theme is “Solutions to Plastic Pollution." http://worldenvironmentday.global
