The event will become a monthly one for the department.
Celebrating the days as a department will also help in building staff morale and strengthen relationships within the department.
Although there were more staff who had their birthdays in January and the month of February, only two brave celebrants turned up to sit in the spotlight — R2R Technical Staff Petelo Otoota Tooa and Environment Impact Assessment unit’s Lesieli Tuivai.
The staff shared a birthday cake and tea with their celebrants at the event, which was also attended by Department Director, Ms Lupe Matoto.
The next celebration will be held in March.
