"Unite for Nature: Celebrating World Environment Day and Embracing a Sustainable Future"

Gajera International School, Utran marked a momentous celebration of World Environment Day on June 5th, 2023. The event witnessed an array of activities aimed at promoting environmental awareness and instilling a sense of responsibility towards our planet among the learners.

As part of the festivities, students enthusiastically participated in a plantation drive, contributing to the green cover of the school campus. However, the 3rd and 4th-grade students had a unique opportunity to explore the Oxygen garden. Accompanied by their educators, they embarked on an educational journey, discovering various plants and learning about their significance in our ecosystem. The educators imparted valuable knowledge about the different types of plants, their characteristics, and the crucial role they play in maintaining a healthy environment.

Meanwhile, the students from higher classes engaged in a spirited Cricket match, which had a wonderful twist. Recognizing the importance of trees in combating climate change, they devised a special plan to combine their passion for the sport with their dedication to environmental conservation. For every dot ball, a delivery in which no runs are scored, the players pledged to plant a tree. Moreover, they decided to plant two trees for every four runs scored, and an impressive three trees for every six runs hit.

This unique approach not only showcased the learners' sporting spirit but also highlighted their commitment to sustainable practices. The Cricket match became a platform for the students to raise awareness about the importance of trees and the urgent need to protect our environment.
