In the Komatsu Class session, Pritalisa, a representative of KMSI staff, provided education about waste management with the concept of 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) to 35 students representing the school. This education aims to instill environmental awareness in the younger generation about the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling waste. On this occasion, the students also received stationery which is expected to support their learning activities.
In addition to education, KMSI also distributed education funds to 15 outstanding students at SDN Kayu Bawang 2. With this assistance, it is hoped that outstanding students will be more motivated in pursuing education and can meet their learning needs. In addition, this assistance is expected to spur the enthusiasm of other students to study more actively.
In order to create a better working environment, KMSI also provides assistance in renovating the ceiling of the teacher's room which is in inadequate condition. This renovation aims to make teachers feel safe and comfortable in carrying out teaching and administrative activities, so that the working atmosphere in the school environment becomes more conducive.
This series of CSR activities was welcomed by teachers and the surrounding environment. The enthusiasm of the students was very extraordinary in this Komatsu Class event. With this CSR activity, KMSI hopes to have a positive impact on the school environment to improve the quality of education and benefit the surrounding community. (FMW)
