LET’S CELEBRATE OUR UNITY……OUR EARTH
When we see the Earth from space. We see ourselves as a whole;
We see the unity and not the division;
It’s One Planet, One Human Race.
Every year April 22, Earth Day marks the anniversary of the modern environmental movement which started in 1970. This year in 2020, we celebrated the 50th year of Earth Day.
In the previous years this day was dedicated to many activities such as raising awareness about the environment through various events and functions as well as tree plantation drives. This year due to corona virus lockdown, we did not get the opportunity to be a part of any such program. But our school surely did its best while everyone stayed indoors.
The students participated in a virtual function, specially designed by the Art department, the efforts were praiseworthy.Our school Principal, Mrs. Shikha Banerjee welcomed the Chief Guest, Dr. Sadhana Singh,Principal D.G.College, Kanpur. She briefed about recycling and using the waste to make something useful emphasising that recycling is a small way to make a big impact on the environment. She also shared her views on the importance of protecting the natural ecosystem. The students chanted shlokas, sang a song specially prepared for Earth Day and a beautiful PPT presentation of all the paintings and art work was displayed, all related to ‘Save Earth, Save Life’ The celebration ended with a vote of thanks by our Vice Principal, Mr. Ashley Fernandez and our Head Mistress, Mrs. Madhushree Bhaumik.
