As part of SLA’s 15th anniversary celebration, 80 SLA staff volunteers contributed to environmental sustainability by completing the reforesting of a small portion of Coney Island with a tree planting session on 19 February 2016. This was followed by a guided walk organised by SLA’s Salsa Environment Engagement Team and hosted by the National Parks Board (NParks).
On 7 October 2016, SLA’s Salsa Charity Team held a sushi-making workshop for children from Student Care Services – Yishun, much to their delight. On 25 November 2016, the Charity Team took children from the Canossaville Children’s Home on a historical tour of the black-and-white bungalow at 2 Mandalay Road. After the tour, the children participated in “B&W Trail Games”, finding clues and solving questions at the various “pit stops” within the bungalow. Goodie bags containing stationery items such as poster colours, folders, writing tools and drawing blocks were packed and distributed to the children.
