Little hands, green ideas and lessons in sustainability
Students at Apeejay Svran Global School, Faridabad, explore nature through creative activities and lessons on conservation
Young children at Apeejay Svran Global School, Faridabad, Sector 21 D, explored the colours of nature and the importance of caring for the environment through two celebrations, Green Colour Day and World Sustainability Day. Both activities helped them connect everyday observations with simple lessons about the world around them.
Green Colour Day: Learning through observation
Green Colour Day brought the colour green into the classroom through objects, conversations and creative activities. The little learners brought green-coloured objects from home and spoke a few lines about them to their classmates. The exercise gave them an opportunity to practise speaking with confidence while identifying a colour they often see in their surroundings.
The children also learnt how to spell GREEN. They explored green-coloured birds, reptiles and insects, discovering how the colour appears across the natural world. Craft activities formed another part of the celebration. The children made green-themed creations and took them home, carrying a reminder of what they had learnt.
Through these activities, the school encouraged colour recognition, creativity, confidence and environmental awareness.
World Sustainability Day: Small steps towards conservation
The focus on nature continued with World Sustainability Day, which was celebrated to build awareness about protecting the environment and conserving natural resources.
Children took part in printing and bird-making activities. They also crafted bulbs and water drops to be displayed near switches and taps. These served as simple reminders to save electricity and water, linking classroom work with habits children could practise every day.
The activities introduced them to practical ways of caring for the planet, such as planting trees, saving water and keeping their surroundings clean. Each task gave the children a chance to express themselves creatively while understanding why natural resources need care.
Together, the two celebrations connected learning with familiar things: colours, birds, insects, water and electricity. They encouraged children to notice nature around them and recognise that looking after it begins with small, everyday actions.
