Compassion Project for

the Bantar Gebang Community

As we entered into Holy week at the beginning of April, Spring eld School

Ra es Hills invited primary students to participate in a Compassion Project.
Our Compassion project this year was to help a community living in the
rubbish tip in the Bantar Gebang area. Due to a re, more that 100 families
lost their houses and all their belongings.

We were very excited to involve our Primary students in this project. It was
very rewarding to be able to help our students to join in and contribute to a
better and more compassionate world.

We asked each family to support this initiative with a small contribution. To
make sure no resources went to waste, we assigned di erent items to
di erent grades. Here is the list of the donations we were able to provide

to this much needy community:
Primary 1 - 10 wooden pencils
Primary 2 - 3 toothbrushes and 3 toothpaste
Primary 3 - 5 notebooks
Primary 4 - 2 soap dan 2 shampoo

Primary 5 - Clothes (shirt, tshirt, pants)
Primary 6 - 2 towels

On 18 April 2022, Pak Yusup the representative for the Bantar Gebang Community came to our school and collected the donations which then
went to the Bantar Gebang Community.

Together we are making a di erence! Thank you for your great generosity!
