The River Clean Up was a valuable experience, not only in helping to remove waste from the river but also in building a strong sense of teamwork among participants. Although it was physically tiring, there was great satisfaction in seeing the collected trash. This activity taught me the importance of protecting our rivers and showed that small actions, when done together, can create a big positive impact on the environment.

River Clean Up x Sekolah Cikal Bandung

I do collaboration with River Clean Up by inviting year 2 students of Sekolah Cikal Bandung to contribute saving our environment especially the river. We visited Cikapundung River Spot and work together as "Pasukan Sungai" and we got 21 Kgs trash of fabric, plastic and many things around the river. It was such a beneficial experience for my students that has a topic lesson about Working Together x Life on Earth. We hope we can continue this collaboration and make a good impact in Bandung.
