Every year on April 22, people worldwide celebrate Earth Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness and taking action to protect our planet. Since its inception in 1970, Earth Day has grown into a global movement, inspiring millions to advocate for environmental conservation and sustainability. The theme for this year is "Planet vs. Plastics," highlighting the dangers plastic poses to our planet and our health. An assembly was conducted by the students of Grade VIII C to reflect on the importance of a healthy planet and take action to ensure a sustainable future for all on Friday, 26th April 2024. This year, Earth Day tackles a pressing environmental issue: plastic pollution. Students encapsulated this through a thought-provoking speech. Earth is our home. We rely upon it for our existence in many different ways. Its resources feed us and provide the materials for our way of life. Even modest changes to Earth's systems have had profound influences on human societies and the course of civilization. This was conveyed through an impactful skit and an enthralling dance performance. The event witnessed humongous zeal and excitement among the learners.
