Earth Day
Earth Day is an annual event celebrated on 22 April to appreciate Mother Earth for its bountiful blessings and to increase
the awareness regarding the damage caused to the Earth by human beings. The students of Classes KG to 5 celebrated
Earth Day with an array of activities like making posters using finger and hand printing, making a terrarium, preparing green
salad, making a pen stand using eco-friendly material and planting a sapling and speaking about it. The students enjoyed
the activities thoroughly and understood the importance of their contribution towards conservation of natural resources
and making this planet even more beautiful. Activities were organised virtually for classes 6-12, based on this year’s theme
that focuses on natural processes, emerging green technologies, and innovative thinking that can restore the world's
ecosystems.

therein. On July 2, our students attended the screening of Parama-a movie by Aparna Sen under the aegis of Spic Macay.

for the young movie-enthusiasts.
