The Tree Plantation Drive was organised in our school on Monday to promote environmental awareness. Students from all classes assembled in the playground where the Principal addressed everyone and explained the importance of planting trees. Saplings of neem, mango, and gulmohar were distributed. Teachers guided students on how to plant and water them properly. The Eco-Club volunteers labelled each sapling and promised to look after them. By the end of the drive, more than 200 trees had been planted across the campus. The event helped students understand their responsibility towards nature and created a sense of pride in contributing to a greener school environment.
