Teachers also explained about the trees and the importance of tree plantation. Even supporting staff also taught us how to plant them and then they watered the plants. The helpers told us different thing about the plant, their uses etc. drawing and painting, slogans, poster making competition were also held for the primary students in this programme. On this occasion, Headmistress Sr Pramila said, “There is a very well known saying healthy minds lives within healthy body. We all know fresh air not only gives us healthy lungs with healthy body but also produce healthy mind too.”
‘Plant a tree India’ is very much concerned about students and as well as youngsters. We believe that Tiny Tots students are just like a budding plant, if not nurtured now then loses its chance to become a full fledge tree. So with keeping this concern in our minds we conducted this ‘Plantation of Trees’ programme for them only.
