VANAMAHOTSAVA
‘Lend a Hand, Save our Land’, was the motto echoed on this
year’s Vanamahotsava Celebrations that was held in the
school premises on June 14, 2019. The event, compered by Ms
Rania of Grade 8, commenced with the planting of saplings in
our school garden. Teachers of EVS Studies, and students
accompanied by our Principal, Administrator and Academic
Co-ordinators, and Ms Avleyn the event co-ordinator, planted
saplings in the school grounds, kick-starting the
Vanamahotsava Celebrations.
The dais glowed with the dynamic presence of Principal,
Administrator and Co-Ordinators. The event continued with a
powerpoint presentation by Astle and Akanksh, who briefed
the students about the culture and importance of
Vanamahotsva. The powerpoint presentation was followed by
inspiring speeches by Tushank of Grade 9 and our Academic
Co-ordinator Ms Maggie Lewis, who iterated on the importance
of the need of the hour to protect and plant trees, in order
to save our environment and reminding us that ‘Forests are
the world’s best Air conditioning systems’.
Students of Grade 7, melodiously echoed their sentiments on
the occasion through a beautiful, thought provoking song
‘Naa kaato Mujhe, Bada Dukh Hota Hai (Do not cut me down, It
hurts and pains me)’’
In his address, the Principal stressed on the urgent need of
protecting the environment. He encouraged the students with
the idea to have their own ‘pet plant’ at home or at school.
He also mentioned that the present scenario of poor rains
has been caused due to the incessant deforestation and
pollution of the environment. He reminded us that our school
patron – St. Francis Assisi was a lover of nature, and we
too like him must love and respect our nature and its
surroundings.
The event concluded with the vote of Thanks, by Sumanth of
Grade 10.
