Controlling the weeds

16 Oct 2017

Circular weeding around the Tecoma trees. This is to stop the weeds from taking up the nutrients and water from the trees. The children enjoyed it especially when they found earthworms as they dug into the soil. Circular weeding for the kids turned into earthworm hunting. After weeding, we put fertilizers for the trees.

First Bloom

26 August 2017

Today, Mr Leong, RA SS20 Central Chairman, spotted the first bloom on one of the Tecoma trees at the field on the Rd 14 side. It's a delicately beautiful white flower. 13 Tecoma trees were planted by MBPJ on 13 July 2017. Looks like our 'Sakura Park' will be a reality sooner than expected! Thank you to all our children together with Mr Chan who has adopted the trees and showered them with tender loving care.

More trees for our park

13 July 2017

RA SS20 Central believes that every little bit that we do to help the environment counts. 

Trees are awesome. They can clean the air  by filtering off the pollutants. They absorb carbon dioxide and releases oxygen. They can cool the environment too by releasing water vapours into the air.  So in May 2017, we requested for Tecoma trees to be planted in the field to help beautify and green our neighbourhood. 

Tecoma trees in full bloom

With the help of the Landscape Dept of MBPJ, 13 Tecoma trees were planted in the Central Zone field today to help us take a step further towards a green low carbon community. 

The children were really excited to see the new trees in the evening and eagerly helped to water them. Such a beautiful sight to see the kids watering the trees! Also can't wait to see the trees in full bloom!

Special thanks to Pn Zuraidah bt Sainan (Director, Landscape Dept, MBPJ) and her staff for their efficiency, support and help.
