Crawford International Sandton advocates for zebra conservation
With striking art and fun facts, Crawford International Sandton’s World Zebra Day celebration inspired action for zebra conservation.
Crawford International Sandton proudly achieved WESSA platinum status for the second consecutive year, highlighting their commitment to environmental education. Learners actively participated in a creative and educational celebration of World Zebra Day.
WESSA Platinum status is recognised by the Wildlife and Environment Society of South Africa, reflecting the school’s ongoing efforts to integrate environmental responsibility into its curriculum and extramural.
Grade 7 learners led the charge, crafting 350 zebra finger puppets, which they distributed to younger learners, sharing fun zebra facts along the way. This hands-on activity fostered collaboration and creativity among all involved.

The festivities continued with zebra-themed paintings in the visual arts classroom, where learners expressed their artistic talents. The day not only promoted creativity but also raised awareness about the importance of zebras in our ecosystems.
Zebras, known for their striking stripes and role in maintaining biodiversity, face threats such as habitat loss and poaching.
On World Zebra Day, Crawford International Sandton encouraged everyone to take action and support zebra conservation to ensure these incredible creatures continue to thrive for generations to come.
