“Water, water everywhere, not a drop to drink” – This famous line from Samuel Coleridge’s poem accurately sums up the current state of water on our planet.
Earth’s fresh water resources are true treasures which must be used judiciously.
Immense water pollution, lack of clean drinking water, prolonged droughts, sporadic monsoons, etc., are some of the issues we talk about when discussing water scarcity.
In order to raise awareness among the students from a young age itself, a Poster Making Activity was conducted in the Junior Wing in Classes 2 and 3. The aim of this activity was to spread awareness about the worsening water crisis in our country.
The students designed beautiful and informative posters which highlighted the different ways in which we can contribute towards water conservation. The student had videos recorded of themselves, with their posters in hand, where they spoke about the steps, they actively take in their personal lives to reduce wastage of water.
The Kindergartners and the students of Class 1 participated enthusiastically in the Rain Water Collection Activity during the Monsoon. The young Columbans shared their experiences of how ‘Rain Water’ can be collected and used later for watering plants, cleaning cars, balconies and in various other ways.
Instilling these values in students from a young age is imperative to nurture them to grow and be considerate of the impact that our actions have on the environment. Young children are great messengers for spreading the importance of water conservation to the members in their families.
This project sensitized our students to do their own little bit to care for the environment.
