A BRIEF REPORT
ON THE WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY, 2023
VIVEKANANDA
KENDRA VIDYALAYA, KHATKHATI
(KHATKHATI
& BOKAJAN TOWN UNIT)
The
World Environment Day was observed on the 5th of June, 2023 (Monday) at VKV
Khatkhati & at Bokajan Town Unit. The Significance of the Day was delivered
by the Principal of the school, Sri Subash Kumar Verma during the Morning
Assembly at VKV Khatkhati. He threw light on the conservation of the
environment and natural resources. He spoke on the importance of plantation for
all living beings, and also asked the students to bring one sapling each to
school on their birthdays and asked them to take care of it by pouring water to
its roots every morning and keeping an eye on it every day. He, also, shared
his idea about nurturing the birds. He asked each student to bring a handful of
food grains to school, as and when it might be possible (and that too, with due
permission of their parents)- and to store it in a fixed place together, so as
to supply it to birds as and when required and help them survive well.
Thereafter,
a Competition based on Drawing & Painting (for students) was held during
the 3rd & the 4th periods respectively, in both the places, and thereafter
those were exhibited inside the school campus. All the students from Class
Nursery to Class VI enthusiastically participated at the same, under guidance
of teachers.
After
the aforementioned competition was over, miscellaneous saplings were planted on
the ground in both the campus, under guidance & cooperation of teachers
& non-teaching staff members. After plantation, sufficient water was
supplied to their roots. Also, it was suggested to bring some extra water with
them so as to pour it at the roots.
Finally,
some hand-made Birds' Homes & Nests (made by the students and staff
members) were exhibited, and thereafter those were fixed on the three big trees
in front of the school, so that the birds could stay there safely. Thus, it was
really a fruitful day for all.
