Almora, Earth Day was celebrated with great fanfare at Government Primary School, Bajela where children participated in various activities and celebrated this day with glee, the thought behind the celebration was that, ‘The Earth has enough to fulfil everyone’s need, but not everyone’s greed.’
Everything in the world around us is built upon the Earth, grows on the Earth, or depends on the environment of the Earth in some or the other way. As we know this is the only planet where survival is possible so it becomes our duty to save our Mother Earth. With the view of educating our little kids about what we have and what we are losing by acting in ways that aren’t environment friendly or energy efficient and reminding them that we need to take action now to protect our environment before it’s too late.
Keeping this in mind, Government Primary School, Bajela celebrated The Earth day on 22nd April, 2019. A special assembly was conducted where in the students of Std IV and V shared their views about the importance of saving Earth and the measures that can be adopted to save our planet Earth. Also, a hand out was given to the students based on the significance of our planet and the steps to keep our environment clean and green.
Later, a talk was conducted in the classes so that every child can come out with his environment friendly ideas of Saving Earth. The children were made aware that EVERY DAY IS AN EARTH DAY and the purpose of celebrating Earth Day is to help to keep our grass green and our skies blue with more trees and less pollution.
