Plantation Drive
SFS has had a long standing tradition of showing concern towards environment, flora and fauna. In order to sensitise the students towards the need of preserving environment and ecology, a tree plantation drive was organised on 16 July 2019.
Students planted various types of saplings like neem, tulsi, jasmine and different types of ferns and other medicinal plants. The main objective of this initiative was to make the students more conscious of their duty towards environment, thereby making them proactive and instrumental in making efforts to stop further degradation and learn to progress by striking the right balance between sustainability and use of nature’s gift.
The Principal Dr. Ragini Kaul in her address laid emphasis on the importance of trees and plants. She encouraged the students to plant trees on their birthdays. She shared that planting a tree yields many benefits like it recharges ground water, prevents soil erosion etc.
