Van Mahotsav or the ‘Festival of planting
trees’ was celebrated at Orchids on 17/7/2013.
There was a cultural programme by the students of various
classes. Skits and songs relevant to the theme of afforestation and the need to
appreciate and conserve the existing gifts from Mother Nature were presented.
The students also came up with pertinent slogans.
Keeping in mind the need to increase
greenery, it was followed by the planting of saplings by all the classes in the
school campus. The bougainvillea was the plant for each class of the primary
section while the classes of the senior section planted palm tree saplings. The
students participated in all the activities with a lot of enthusiasm and energy.
