Last Saturday, the students of SK Taman Rinting 2 held a recycling
campaign. The members from the recycling club participated the campaign and a few other students from diferent clubs also joined them. The campaign was organized to raise money for charity. The teachers also helped the students. Once all the students had assembled in the school feld, they were divided into groups of eight or nine. Each group were then given a map of the neighbourhood and a teacher would company them to each house. They asked the occupants of the house for recycling items. They started their task at 8.00 a.m. They collected many newspapers ,cans and bottles .They explained their motive of the campaign to the occupants before asking for recycled items. They also gave a badge to each occupant who contributed the recycled materials. Then they gathered all the recyclable items in front of the school compound. After a few hours, the students had already completed the task that was given to them. They ended their campaign at 11.00 a.m. A recycling truck then loads the entire collected item and paid a sum of money. A few teachers also pitched in some money for the charity. They have collected a total amount of RM400. Before going home, the teachers gave the students a treat for their hard work. They brought the students to a restaurant nearby . The students thanked the teachers and enjoyed the meals. They felt proud of themselves for doing a good deed. They also helped to keep the environment clean.
