International Day of Environmental Action and Service

Madagascar professional Training center (MPTC)

We are actually between the age of 12 to 16, and we took part today, Saturday October 19th 2024 from 7.30 to 11.30 a.m (Madagascar Time), in the I. D. E. A. S.  (International Day of Environmental Action and Service) near the Administration office in Andranomena,Antananarivo,Madagascar . 

Covering the third action which is « Care for the Nature «, The project was undertaken by students from Quickmarch level 1, Quickmarch level 2, Breakthrough level 1 and the PTE (Pearson Test of English) Level 2, in total, with the teachers and helpers we were 31. It was actually organized by the PTE General Level 2.

The objective of the project is to sensitize the population leaving in Andranomena to not throw rubbish in the area and to incite them to protect the environment.

The project consisted of : cleaning the area by taking all the trash into trash bins (we have collected about 20 bags of trash bins)  and to plant 15 trees in the area  by fertilizing the place and to ask volunteer students to plant and to water the baby trees, to come  back to the center and to celebrate by having a barbecue party .
