An organic garden for the senior citizens In our endeavor to promote community spirit, create a sense of admiration towards the senior citizens, and to celebrate International Day of Older citizens, a dinner party was organized for the senior members of the community. As a token of love and respect, a new organic garden recently built by ECM was unveiled and dedicated to these members of the community. The garden is home to a wide variety of shrubs and herbs such as mint, rosemary lemongrass, and basil used as a ground cover. Flowering plants and fruit trees such as orange, chikoo, guava, mango, olive, fig etc. The Garden has been named “ The Backyard” to give it a very personal touch and to make them feel at home. They can now engage in gardening activities, read a book, or just relax and unwind.

A greener summerMaintenance and upkeep of greenery in our community have been challenging tasks this summer, owing to the soaring temperatures and a critical shortage of Treated Sewage Effluent (TSE) Water used to irrigate our vast lawns and landscaping. To alleviate this recurring problem and mitigate the risks, we pursued a host of solutions such as irrigation through tapping points, additional water supply using water tankers and employed upgraded irrigation networks and systems. In addition to this, we worked with the local authorities to ensure a substantial and steady supply of TSE Water from their network. You may have noticed that significant efforts were undertaken to renew the affected landscaping in your community. Our teams are working relentlessly to maintain and protect the overall impression and aesthetics of your community.

Time to bring your scary side out – for the Halloween Costume Contest! So get out your ‘scarecessories’; fake blood, eye patches, pirate hats, Dracula fangs or whatever else complete your trick or treating ensemble and step out for a ghoul get-together.

So be there early to collect yours for a chance to take home a prize. Parking will be limited so we encourage you to walk or bike to the event. Please leave pets at home.

Back to School with a bangTo mark the beginning of a new academic year, a special Back to School event was organized on 08 September 2017 for children living in The Greens and Views community. The event featured lots of entertainment for the young ones, ranging from a magician, games and bouncy castles to an arts & crafts section which included face painting and sand art.
