Taylor's College Sri Hartamas Environmental Week
The environmental problems caused by human activities has been steadily gaining awareness all over the globe. In accordance with that, Taylor’s College Sri Hartamas Campus recently held an Environmental Week, organized jointly by Marcia from TCSH's Student Council and Arthur from the Tree Huggers Club on the first week of May.
The co-organizer from the Tree Huggers Club, Arthur Chia, thought that this event was rather successful, as many people had became more aware of the recycling bins that were brought in by the Tree Huggers Club and started recycling recyclable materials. His comment, “Awesome!” says it all.
Over the week, several other interesting activities were planned. Among them were the day-long game, Fugitive, and Green Day where students were encouraged to dress in earth colours - green and brown - in support of the Environmental Week campaign. On the second day of the week, an anonymous student walked around wearing four clues - a green skirt, braided hair, a red pin worn on her top and a unique bear handphone keychain. However, the hidden Fugitive proved to be quite hard to find and it was only within ½ hour before the competition ended before anyone figured out her identity. Co-winners, Sandra Yam and Shalani Ravishanker won the competition. “It was frustrating finding the fugitive but it was fun as we figured it out in the end.”
Green Day saw many students dressed in their finery, showing their support in green and brown. On hearing this, most would agree that the campaign was a success.
After the week was over, a student was overheard saying to her friend in the printing room, “Reprint? No, thank you. I save trees.”
