Value Education

“Life without value education is like a ship without a rudder”

Education does not just mean teaching the students how to read, write and get a job. It also includes developing the personality of the students by imbibing in them a good set of values which enables a person to raise his or her self-esteem. The values taught in schools like discipline, punctuality, honesty, perseverance and patriotism help them realise the importance of love and peace and non-violence. Life is short and precious and so, it should be spent wisely, truthfully and happily.

SAY “NO” TO PLASTIC

 

Why should we say “No” to plastics?

Say No to Plastic because it takes 1000 years to decompose into smaller pieces, which seep down into the soil and release chemicals, which eventually reach the water supply. Manufacturing of plastic bags is harmful to the environment because non-renewable resources are used (petroleum and natural gas).

Here are some simple slogans to say (NO TO  PLASTIC) in any way:-

1) Plastics give a helpful hand, but they are polluting our land!

2) If you are ‘Fantastic’ then do something ‘Drastic’ to cut the ‘Plastic’

3) Go Green, Plastic is Obscene!

4) Handle with care, plastic is everywhere

5) Don’t be drastic; Say “NO” to plastic.

6) Stop bagging the planet – say NO to plastic bags.

7) No plastic is fantastic.

8) 4R’s:- REDUCE, REFUSE, REUSE, RECYCLE PLASTIC BAGS

9) Do not laminate our mother earth!

10) Do something drastic, cut the plastic!

Educate Children to Save Environment

Children are our future. This future can be bold and beautiful or dark and dreary. We can nurture a generation of environmental leaders who love and respond well to the environment by making choices to live, work and play in a way that respects our natural spaces.

We can follow simple tips to teach environmental lesson to the children. Always encourage children to use appropriate receptacle for their waste: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle as much as they can. Little things like packing a Waste-free lunch, get a favourite character reusable lunch bag, close the faucet while brushing and bathing, switch off the light when you are out of the room can make a powerful lesson for the children.

Use stickers as reward for the kids if they follow little steps to save environment. The same way you teach kids to respect others, you can teach them to respect nature. You can teach little ones about environment conservation and consequences of destroying the environment in play way manner.

Remember kids learn by playing!
