Van Mahotsav

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.
