Let's take a photo before start. Cheers! Through the Earth Partner programme organized by FoE (HK), we have lined up ‘Jupiter’ Club 21 (Hong Kong) Limited and ‘Mercury’ Leung Kui Kau Lutheran Primary School for a project combining school greening and corporate social responsibility. The first project was successfully launched on Saturday, 11th Oct 2008. ‘School Greening Scheme’ contains three parts, including (1) setting up six medium-sized movable flowerbeds, planting different types of vegetation, (2) developing a mini farming site and (3) improving the landscape of the gardens. Thanks Club 21 for sponsoring the scheme and organizing a volunteering team with 30 staff members. They spent a morning with the student representatives to plant the seedlings, to beautify the landscape and weed the gardens. (Left) Volunteers of Club 21 helped putting the bamboos in order. (Right) Students were working hard on weeding as same as the volunteers. This was the first time for some staff volunteers of Club 21 to participate in the greening job, they said: ‘The activity is different from the daily office work. It not just brings them new experiences, but also sense of achievement upon completion’. Being the beneficiary, the school principal, teachers and students took the initiative to extend the scheme to become teaching and learning materials, as well as to practice liberal studies. This is only the first phase, volunteers of Club 21 will re-visit the school in 2009. Planning in the first quarter, taking self-planted vegetation to visit an elderly centre with teachers and student representatives. Making it a value-added scheme for the community. (Left) Volunteers of Club 21 are all-round, painting is their strength too. (Right) Building the fences is not an easy task without a good team work.
