‘SAVE EARTH’ slogan echoed in the corridors of Sri Prakash Synergy School, Peddapuram as Synergites celebrated Earth Day on 21 April 2018. The students, who grew environment-conscious, contributed their might in the form of an array of thought-stirring eco-exhibits and charts about bio-diversity, pollution and waste recycling. The dawn of the day witnessed a grand rally across the main arteries of Peddapuram as a run-up to the Earth Day Celebrations of the day.
The rally was flagged off by Sri B.R.S Seshadri, Municipal Commissioner, Peddapuram, Sri V.Visweswara Rao, R.D.O, and Sri Raja Suribabu Raju, Chairman, Peddapuram Municipality,
in the presence of the school’s Director Sri Ch.Vijay Prakash. The rally was aimed at creating awareness in the minds of the public about conservation of biodiversity.
The fact that more than 100 Synergites shared their photos that showed their planting saplings in their respective houses speaks eloquently about the scale of their compassion towards the mother Earth. Part of the celebrations, Chief Guest Sri A.R.K. Sastry, Former Director, Botanical Survey of India and renowned advocate of biodiversity conservation shared his views on Mangroves and Himalayan forests through a captivating PPT presentation.
Growing increasingly conscious about fast depleting forest cover, disappearing mangroves, escalating pollution levels, and melting ice-caps, Synergites symbolically presented a dance format followed by a song and a mime on the theme “Save Earth’. In his key-note address, the Chief Guest exhorted the students that they should be compassionate enough to treat the mother Earth with unconditional love and compliance.
School’s Director Sri Ch. Vijay Prakash appealed to the students that they should become more and more environment-conscious. The Director’s words that the school goes in the direction of conserving energy as 75% of the school’s electricity needs will be supported with the help of solar panels drew a thunderous applause.
With an oath administered requisitioning compliance to the laws of ecology, the programme drew to a close. Senior Principal, Sri M.V.S Murthy, Vice-Principal Smt.Neera Prasad, Sri M.Satish, Liaison Officer and the Teaching Fraternity participated.
