A second commented, "Parents and caregivers can set good examples through their own actions and provide positive reinforcement for children's efforts in maintaining cleanliness, tidiness, and collaborative behaviour."

"It is a great idea. We must have this kind of activity as a part of education," said a third.

A fourth added, "This is urgently needed, and it certainly will build a sense of responsibility among future generations towards their surroundings, whether it is their home or the public spaces. Ironically, the sense of responsibility for public spaces is missing in the current generation."

"Absolutely! Incorporating cleanliness in schools is crucial for creating a positive and healthy learning environment. It teaches children valuable habits that can last a lifetime," posted a fifth.
