Earth Day Celebration, 22^nd April’21

Nature has its own ways to remind us of its immense power. No time could be more relevant to this fact when such devastating pandemic is turning the lives of us all upside down. We, the common people, often think what can we do to change the world and save the environment. On 22^nd April’21, to commemorate the Earth Day, DPS, Dwarka Expressway opened the platform to the young leaders of tomorrow to pave way for all to follow and do our bit. Our young Dipsites, through their enthusiastic, fervent and commendable participation, showed us that even small little steps eventually make a big impact on the earth.

Our Grade VI learners designed electric vehicles as per their imagination, giving wings to their creativity and reminded us about the importance of green fuel and switching to alternative sources of energy.

Grade VII learners beautifully presented small skits in groups, based on the sustainable development goals.  Zero Hunger, Clean Water and Sanitation were the themes on which the students poured out their creativity and enthralled us with their out of the box ideas.

Grade VIII enjoyed a Virtual Tour and shared self-made videos on the theme ‘Overcoming the Challenges of Climate Change’.

Grade IX learners had a captivating Panel Discussion on ‘Carbon Footprints: All We Need to Know’ They came up with astounding ideas and made each other aware about some remarkable facts and suggestions.

Debate on 'We Should Act Fast in Adoption of Electric Vehicles' (Based on the concept of FAME- Faster Adoption of Electric Vehicles) by Grade X students opened our eyes towards the contradiction between the necessity and the hindrances in adopting this much needed policy.

Overall, the celebration was extremely gratifying, reminding us of our duties towards our planet.

Treat the Earth well. It was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children.” – Kenyan proverb Each year the 22nd of April is celebrated as the Earth Day. It is celebrated to create awareness about protecting our planet and preserving the environment. Saving water, reducing pollution, protecting the wildlife, plants and trees, recycling waste are just a few means to saving our environment. Although only one special day is dedicated for this cause, it is the continuous effort of each individual including children that would really make a difference. Children too can make a significant contribution in saving the environment. It is the right time for children to learn about the environment, how they can preserve it and why. Starting early can truly make a difference. Students at DPS Dwarka Expressway enthusiastically participated in activities like bird house making and shared their thoughts about how they take care of their pet and how to prevent violence against animals
