SIDH PLANTS CHERRY BLOSSOM TREES TO COMMEMORATE EARTH DAY 2016

Wassenaar — To commemorate Earth Day 2016 SIDH planted cherry blossom trees (Japanese Prunus serrulata ‘Kanzan’ and Prunus ‘Kiku-shidare-zakura) near the main entrance of our campus on Friday, 13 May 2016. The selection of plant types was decided after a discussion between OSIS and SIDH, and availability of the trees from nearby garden centres. Although the trees only blossom about 2 months annually it remained exciting for most of our students are attached fans of many things related to Japan and Japanese.

The trees were planted in turn, from our Principal, Mr Budi Wahyu Rianto, Attaché of Education and Culture, Prof. Bambang Hari Wibisono together with the Indonesian National Police Attaché, Chief Commissioner Yuda Gustawan, and OSIS representatives (Nadia and friends). The whole process was assisted by Mr Mul.

The activities for the Earth Day at our school also included picnic-style of games for the students. We hope next year the trees will mesmerize us with spectacular flowers.
