The Cinnamon group’s city hotels – Cinnamon Grand Colombo, Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo and Cinnamon Red – in a bid to reiterate their stance of creating a greener mindset amongst the hotels’ associates, last week organised the first Planet Quiz.
The quiz was organised to create a platform of learning while encouraging associates to read up on environmental issues both on a global and local scale, sustainability and general knowledge related to the planet’s status.
A total of 60 contestants took part in the competition, with each hotel sending 20 of their brightest, in teams of 10 from various departments to compete. Over 200 associates also gathered at Cinnamon Lakeside, the host hotel, as audience members to cheer on their colleagues, at this eagerly anticipated event on the city hotels Environment Week calendar.
Held in three rounds, with each round containing ten questions divided into two sessions, the competition consisted of a ‘do you know’, ‘true or false’, ‘noted and quoted’, ‘planet in crisis’ and ‘mark the map - Sri Lankan sites and world sites’ rounds.
