SNOW LEOPARD
ECO CLUB ANNUAL
REPORT 2007-08
Two Clubs -
'Snow Leopard'
and 'Eco-Club'
are working regularly and
enthusiastically in our school to make students aware of the importance of their
environment.
The year started with
"Earth Day"
celebrations on 20 April. There
was a special assembly in which children took a pledge to protect and nurture
the earth. Children took part in the competition "Best out of Waste"
and made pencil and pen holders, book marks and folders. In July on "World
Population Day" there was a
"Poster Making Competition"
for
middle classes. There was a tree plantation programme also in which children
took saplings to the nearby park and planted them. In September the
children of the Eco Club went for a nature trail in
CM's house. Lima Rosalind
led the trail and explained very nicely about the local flora and fauna of our
city.
Near Diwali Children led the
Anti Cracker Campaign in which children took out
a rally with big banners and shouted slogans against bursting crackers. There
was a skit presented in the assembly for the students too.
Other than these annual events, the school is making recycled paper with
waste. There is vernicomposting being done in the school. We segregate the
biodegradable and non biodegradable waste. Each corridor has two different
colour dustbins. One is green in colour for biodegradable and other one is red,
for non biodegradable wastes. In addition to this some class room have kept
potted plants also, to make students aware of the importance to green plants.
Electricity is utilized in an efficient manner.
