Starting them young.
Dear Friends,
It is another relatively normal week at Waterways Watch Society, with only a total of 6 programmes being held. An additional 2 programmes were cancelled by the client due to external reasons, which is unfortunate. We had one assembly talk this week at Lianhua Primary School where PUB staff went to observe. Additionally, we would like to thank Chongfu Primary School for their continued yearly support in engaging us for our Waterways Watch Explorer (WWE) programme at Yishun Pond. We were heartened to see that the students were highly curious about the nature around them and they were generally very well behaved.
This week, members’ support continues to be good including our team at Pang Sua. A total of 16 new members attended orientation and we had two potential weekday facilitators from two retirees in the group.
