We selected around one hundred students from the six remote schools of the Matugama educational zone. These all schools are very primitive level. Because they haven’t even basic needs what they want. Also, students of these schools had not been participated to any occasion like this here before. So, they were cornered. But as the Leos we could do something especial for them.

“Path to Green World”-Tree Planting Project
When today, the most significant issue we have faced are environmental pollution and climate changing. After the industrialization, the most countries tried to become industrialized without any planning regarding the environment. Also this was similar question to our country. Because, deforestation rate and air pollution are high in Sri Lanka.
So, we decided to hold a tree planting project in the Matugama Town in several years ago and it was fulfilled at the same time. So, in this month we decided to purify these plants and to expand the tree planted area. We chose 21st of September as the date to hold this project. At the day of project we jointed in the Matugama town and started our project by 7.30 am. Firstly, we purified plants which planted in several years ago from Matugama town to Agalawaththa Town. In this, we examined the progress of the plants and put the fertilizers and waters for them. Also we replanted the trees instead of lifeless trees.
After that work, we launched the other part of the project. Thus, tree planting project from Agalawaththa to Bellana. In this, we could plant the most shady plants and valuable plants. Finally, we could conclude our project by 3.00pm and all we became proud on ourselves due to our work.
