Green Bird trash picking program was successfully held on 18th of July 2017. Rapid 57 class with 21 students joined hands together to make it a success. Dr. Eshantha the head of the operation, Mr. Sajana of academic staff, Mr. Aravinda the IT executive and Sara the Greenbird Sri Lanka coordinator took initiatives for arranging the event.

Event started with an orientation since it was the first Gomihiroi program that Rapid 57 was attending.

Dr. Eshantha explained the core idea of picking trash from grounds, proper disposal and progress that we expect to see through program.

Students and Green bird team members were eagerly participating for the event with great team spirit.

Satisfying yet very disappointing, huge amount of trash belongs to many categories such as plastic, paper materials, not burnable, glass, cans, pet bottles and many more were found on the ground.

After the event, refreshments were offered.

The program was a huge success. Students mentioned that they now understand what it is to throw the garbage on the streets, what happened when they do so and what it is to pick the garbage from the streets that someone else is everyday doing for them even without any publicity. They all promised to be environmental friendly hereafter meeting the core expectation of the program.
