“He that plants trees loves others besides himself.” — Thomas Fuller

The “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam” initiative, held on 27th July 2024, was a heart-warming event where seven students from Middle-Stage, along with teacher co-ordinator Ms. Seema Jaiswal and 6 students of Senior Stage along with teacher co-ordinator Ms. Aishwarya Mariyam Aji, came together to plant numerous saplings at the Department of Forest and Wildlife site near the PWD Office. The event was graced by the presence of the SDM South Zone.

The main objectives of the initiative were:

– To foster environmental awareness and responsibility among children by engaging them in tree planting activities.
