Plantation Drive at Our School by the Eco Club

The future will either be green or not exit at all. How's that?

This truth lies at the heart of humankinds most pressing challenge, namely, to learn to live in harmony with Mother Earth on a genuinely sustainable basis.

Working towards this noble cause, the Eco-Club of our School organised a Plantation Drive on 21 August, 2013, to sensitise students on the value of tree plantation. The saplings were procured from the Ministry of Forest Welfare and students of the Gardening Club of classes 6 to 10 planted these saplings in the school compound during their hobby classes. They were placed in large clay pots and freshly dug earth mixed with manure was accommodated all around. The School maalis looked on and offer friendly tips to ensure that each sapling was carefully tended. Students became acquainted with the common names of the saplings like neem, kachnaar, tulsi, jamun, ashwagandha, etc. Some students carried saplings home for planting in their neighbourhoods.
