*“Nature is a tool to get children to experience not just the wider world, but themselves.” - Stephen Moss*
Keeping this enlightening thought in mind, on 5th July 2024, at *VVDAV Public School* the celebration of Van Mahotsav transcended beyond traditional festivities this year, merging with a special birthday celebration that exemplified our commitment to environmental stewardship and community engagement. *Van Mahotsav* , a festival dedicated to tree planting and environmental awareness. The day began with a special assembly where the students of Pre-School to V, born in the months of June and July felt blessed with vedic mantras that echoed the corridors of the school.The event was graced by the *Principal, Ms. Shalini Arora* and the *Supervisory Incharge Ms. Anju Singh.* They extended their blessings and heartfelt wishes to the birthday students.
The highlight of the celebration was a *tree plantation drive,* where students not only commemorated Van Mahotsav but also celebrated their birthdays by planting trees in the school grounds. Each birthday student had the opportunity to plant a sapling, symbolizing their commitment to environmental sustainability.
The school was buzzing with activities planned for students across all levels. The young learners of
*Pre-School* expressed their creativity through Leaf printing and rhyme recitation. The little environmentalists of *Pre-Primary* spread awareness through Slogan शाला and nature walk. Artistic expression of *Class I* students was seen through book mark making and poem recitation. The inspired students of
*Class II* created a Green Corner: A designated area to promote environmental awareness and vocabulary enhancement. *Class III, IV & V* students unleashed their artistic talents through various activities like Mind Mapping, Actomania, Maths in Nature - Poster on patterns, Seed plantation and head gear making through Best out of waste and Social Science Activity ‘Fuel For Life’ - Fresh , Delicious & Nutritious Sprouts Chaat.
The Van Mahotsav celebration at our school was a resounding success, combining educational activities with hands-on experiences to instill a sense of responsibility towards the environment among students. Through these activities, our school continues to uphold the spirit of Van Mahotsav and promote environmental stewardship within the school community.
