Beach Clean-up Programme

On 15th August 2017, the Nature Club of SMK Batu 5 Jeniang

organised a beach clean-up programme at Tanjung Dawai beach. The
programme was a success and the participants learned about the
importance of keeping our beach clean.

30 members of Nature Club participated in the programme

under the supervision of Cikgu Rosli Bin Ramli, the teacher advisor.
The 30 students were divided in ten groups consisting of 10
members in a group and a group leader was appointed for every
group. The leaders’ responsibility is to distribute the cleaning
equipment such as rakes, hoe, gunny sacks and spades.

Each group was designated areas at the beach to be cleaned.

The members of Nature Club were enthusiastic in carrying out their
duties. A lot of rubbish such as soft drink cans, polystyrenes,
newspapers, burnt woods, plastics and food wrappers were
collected. Nature Club believes in recycling and therefore once they
reach school, they separated the waste and put them in different
recycling bins. The remaining rubbish was put in the gunny sack and
was collected by the Municipal Council.

After 4 hours of hard work, the members were satisfied and

proud of their work. The unpolluted beach looked spotless. Before
heading back to school, they sat and enjoyed the scenery of nature
by the beach. Around 4.30, they went back to school.
