“We are the first generation to feel the impact of climate change and the last generation that can do something about it.”
On the occasion of the Earth Day i.e April 22, 2024, the students of Banyan Tree School enthusiastically participated in a plethora of activities to commemorate our benevolent Mother Earth. An array of creative activities were organized with a view to sensitize the children about the conservation of natural resources and to motivate them to do their bit towards making their planet even more beautiful. Pirouetting over the theme of Earth Day 2024- Planet V/s Plastic, myriad of activities like ‘Poster Making’ and ‘Slogan Writing’ were conducted to give the students a platform to showcase their ingenious skills. The corridors of the school reverberated with the thoughtful slogans raised by the students as they took a green walk to sensitize others about the importance of saving the environment.
The senior students turned trash into treasure as they designed aesthetic objects with inspiring quotes and learnt the art of 3R’s i.e reducing, reusing and recycling. They also were engaged in hands-on-activity by planting seeds in plastic bottles, showcasing their innovative ideas for sustainable gardening and recycling. A special assembly was also held to celebrate Mother Earth wherein students highlighted the importance of ‘Sustainable Fashion’ and ‘Earth Hour’ which was followed by a thought provoking skit. On this occasion Director Ma’am, Dr.Jayeta Auddy and Principal Ma’am, Ms.Garima Bhardwaj praised the efforts of all the students and encouraged them to thank Mother Earth for all its bountiful gifts
