A COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT WAS ORGANIZED BY OUR  TROOP LEADER OF 2018/19 ( M. A. S. HANSITH PERERA ) IN ORDER TO PASS HIS CSR PROJECT FOR HIS PRESIDENT'S AWARD. I AND A FEW OTHER SCOUTS OF OUR SCHOOL WAS INVITED TO ASSIST HIM IN HIS PROJECT. I HELPED IN PLANNING THE PROJECT FEW DAYS BEFORE THE PROJECT. THEN THE DAY OF THE PROJECT CAME. IT WAS HELD ON THE 17TH OF APRIL 2019 AT ST. PAUL'S MAHA VIDYALAYA, WARAGODA, SRI LANKA.I WENT THERE AT AROUND 8.45 A.M. AS I REACHED THERE WE TOOK A PHOTO AND SEND IT TO THE SUPERVISER AND CHANGED INTO WORKING CLOTHES AND WE WERE DIVIDED WORK. THE PRESENT SCOUTS WERE, M. A. S. HANSITH PERERA (ORGANIZER), ARITHA BANDARA, KAVISHKA WEWITA, NITHILAN MIRANDA, AKITH ABEYWARDENA, SHEHAN PHILIPKUMAR, DILUKA SAMARASINGHA, HURVY PEIRIS, THINURA BULATHSINGHALA AND ME (KRISHIGAUTHAM GANESHKUMAR).

FIRST I WAS ASSAINED TO REMOVE SOME PLANTS AND PUT SOME SAND. THEN I WAS GIVEN A PIECE OF SAND PAPER AND WAS TOLD TO RUB THE BARS OF A PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT. THE OTHERS WERE ALSO WORKING, SOME WERE PAINTING, SOME WERE SCRUBBING ETC. THEN WE TOOK A BREAK AND ATE SOME SNACKS AND DRINKS GIVEN BY THE ORGANIZER'S MOTHER. AFTER THAT WE CONTINUED WORK, I WAS GIVEN PAINT AND TOLD TO PAINT THE MAXSLIDE IN GREEN. THEN I HELPED TO PAINT FILLER TO MAKE THE WALL WHITE. NEXT I WAS GIVEN RED PAINT AND WAS TOLD TO PAINT THE PYRAMID BARS, SEESAW AND THE SWING. WE TOOK TURNS AND RESTS IN WORKING AS IT WAS SO HOT. WE ALSO DRANK SOME DRINKS IN THE MIDDLE.THE OTHERS STARTED PAINTING THE WALL IN A ABSTRACT PATTERS WITH FOUR COLOURS SUCH AS GREEN, PINK, PURPLE AND YELLOW. IT WAS VERY COLOURFUL AND BEAUTIFUL. IT WAS A GLOOMY DAY, AND AS EXPECTED IT STARTED TO RAIN. BUT WE WERE ABLE TO FINISH WORK. WE EVACUATED THE THINGS TO SHELTER. THEN WE FINALLY CHECKED EVERYTHING AND ENDED WORK. THEN WE HAD A LATE LUNCH AND ENDED THE COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT WITH A VOTE OF THANKS FROM HANSITH PERERA.
