School Events in 2017-2018
Earth Day Celebration, 22 April, 2017

Earth Day is celebrated on April 22, that marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970. The idea for a national day to focus on the environment came to the founder Gaylord Nelson when he witnessed massive oil spills in California.

This year we as a school have decided to celebrate a ‘Green and Clean Week’ which will span from today 21.04.2017 to 28.04.2017.

  • Initiatives that will be taken :-
    1. Switch off fans and lights between 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. today to conserve energy.
    2. Each child is to bring in one plotted plant, preferably non- flowering / crotons so that we can make our school ‘green’. Nature Club is initiating the campaign by buying plants today.
    3. We have to make our school ‘Plastic free’ environment.
    4. Mrs. Kapur has organized naming of all trees of our campus. She has made a tremendous effort to get all scientific names and uses of the plants and the name plates will be put up during this week.
    5. Sister has also decided to beautify the area near the middle school gate.
    6. Nature Club is arranging to set-up bird feeds and water for the population of birds in our campus.
