Hotline Call Centre: 1500 674 (MSI)MSIG Indonesia Promotes Waste Sorting Education for Students Through Biodiversity Fun Class 2026
As part of its commitment to sustainability, MSIG Indonesia resumed Biodiversity Fun Class 2026 after a one-year hiatus. Carrying the theme Caring for the Future, the program was held at SDN Jampang 01 Bogor on 15 July 2026 and SDN Karang Tengah 07 Bogor on 30 July 2026. Through this initiative, MSIG Indonesia invited fifth grade elementary school students to learn how proper waste sorting can become a simple daily habit that supports environmental conservation and biodiversity protection.
Organized in collaboration with the Gerakan Nasional Orang Tua Asuh (GNOTA) and Save the Children Indonesia, Biodiversity Fun Class 2026 engaged more than 100 students across two sessions held at the participating schools. The activities were supported by 12 MSIG Indonesia employee volunteers who guided students throughout the program, creating an interactive and engaging learning experience. The event was also attended by MSIG Indonesia President Director, Mr. Tomosuke Tsuruoka and Director, Mr. Tatsuro Toda, demonstrating the company's strong commitment to environmental education and sustainability initiatives.
Students showed great enthusiasm from the beginning of the program. They actively participated in discussions and eagerly took part in a variety of activities designed to help them understand the importance of protecting the environment through simple everyday habits.
Students Learned Waste Sorting Through Interactive Activities
Before the school sessions began, all MSIG Indonesia employee volunteers participated in a preparatory workshop facilitated by Save the Children Indonesia and GNOTA. The workshop was designed to ensure that every volunteer shared a common understanding before supporting students throughout the activities.
During the session led by Save the Children Indonesia, volunteers explored the connection between waste, climate change, and biodiversity. They also learned about the importance of sorting organic, inorganic, and residual waste, as well as the environmental impact of improper waste management. Meanwhile, GNOTA introduced the volunteers to the participating schools and provided insights into the students' backgrounds and characteristics, enabling volunteers to communicate more effectively and deliver a learning experience that was appropriate for the participants.
The learning continued with a storytelling session led by Save the Children Indonesia, which explored the relationship between waste, climate change, and biodiversity. The session was delivered in an age appropriate and engaging way, making it easier for students to understand how proper waste management supports environmental sustainability.
Students then took part in a hands-on waste sorting activity using visual learning materials and educational props. They learned to identify organic, inorganic, and residual waste before practicing how to sort each type correctly. This practical session helped students understand how waste sorting can be applied in their daily routines.
The activities became even more engaging through quizzes and group games that encouraged students to collaborate while reinforcing the lessons they had learned. Throughout the program, MSIG Indonesia volunteers guided each group, creating a supportive and interactive learning environment for all participants.
As part of its long-term commitment to environmental education, MSIG Indonesia also donated one plastic bottle press machine and three sets of waste sorting bins to each participating school. These facilities are expected to encourage students to practice waste sorting in their daily school activities while serving as practical learning tools that reinforce the environmental messages introduced throughout the program.
Through Biodiversity Fun Class 2026, MSIG Indonesia hopes students will continue practicing waste sorting in their daily lives and share what they have learned with their families and communities. By building environmental awareness from an early age, the program aims to inspire small everyday actions that contribute to protecting biodiversity and creating a more sustainable future.
