One
tree can start a forest,
One smile can begin a friendship.
One hand can lift a
soul,
One word can frame the goal.
One candle can wipe out
darkness,
One laugh can conquer gloom
One life can the difference
Be that one today.
Van Mahotsav is annual tree planting festival in India. This movement
was initiated in the year 1950 by India’s union Minister for Agriculture, Kulpati Dr K. M Munshi. It has gained immense national importance
and every year millions of saplings are
planted all across India in observation of the Van Mahotsav week.
In the same theme, Vivekanand society for social service came to our school premises
and donated 100 saplings under their “Go
Green Campaign”. A small ceremony was organized for handing over of sapling
wherein ceremony started with a song filled with significance of trees in human
life. After that an enactment of mime was presented by students of VIII–B depicting
how destruction of nature will lead to the destruction of civilization.
All the
students pledged to plant 5 saplings every year and refrain from doing anything
which causes harm to nature and create awareness about it to the best of their
ability .The program ended with the vote of thanks and commemorative
photograph.Thus the vanmahotsav month ended on a happy note.
