Van Mahotsav Celebration 2025
“He who plants a tree, plants a hope.” – Lucy Larcom

Van Mahotsav was celebrated with great enthusiasm at St. Xavier’s High School, Sector-81, to raise awareness about the importance of trees and promote a greener, more sustainable future. The celebration was marked by a series of engaging activities that allowed students across various grades to connect with nature and understand their role in protecting the environment.

As part of the celebration, a special Story Reading Competition was organised for Grade 1 students. The objective was to help young learners develop a love for nature, understand the significance of trees, and build sensitivity towards environmental conservation. The students participated wholeheartedly, narrating beautifully illustrated stories that reflected their creativity and growing awareness about ecological issues.

The enthusiasm continued across other grades as well. Kindergarten students enjoyed a lively storytelling session followed by a fun colouring activity centred on the importance of trees. Upper Kindergarten children actively took part in a plantation drive, experiencing the joy of planting and nurturing new life. Meanwhile, Grade 3 students explored their artistic side through a delightful leaf printing activity, which also included meaningful discussions on nature and sustainability.

Adding a sweet touch to the day, World Chocolate Day was also celebrated with fun-filled, hands-on activities. Kindergarten children crafted their favourite chocolates using clay dough, while Upper Kindergarten students designed colourful candy models using paper and clay, making the day both joyful and creatively stimulating.

The celebrations were a beautiful blend of learning and enjoyment, helping young minds grow more conscious and caring towards the environment. The day served as a gentle reminder that small acts of awareness and kindness towards nature can lead to a brighter, greener tomorrow.

*Xaverians Lead the Way Towards a Greener Future on International Plastic Bag Free Day: *
On the occasion of International Plastic Bag Free Day, St. Xavier’s High School, Sector 81 reaffirmed its commitment to environmental sustainability by organizing a series of engaging and age-appropriate activities across different grade levels. The day aimed to educate young minds about the harmful impact of plastic on the environment and to inspire them to embrace eco-friendly habits.

The celebration began in the Kindergarten and UKG classes, where children watched an engaging and informative video highlighting the dangers of single-use plastic bags. This was followed by an interactive discussion led by the teachers, during which the little ones shared their understanding of the issue. Their responses reflected surprising awareness and a willingness to bring small changes in their daily routines.

Moving on to Grade 1, the students channeled their creativity by designing eco-friendly badges with impactful messages and illustrations. These badges were not only a fun craft activity but also a medium to raise awareness among their peers and family members about the importance of saying no to plastic and choosing sustainable alternatives.

In Grade 3, the focus was on action through craft and expression. The students created paper bags using old newspapers, beautifully decorated with meaningful slogans such as “Paper is Cool, Plastic is Cruel” and “Bring a Bag, Save the Planet.” The activity encouraged students to think creatively while reinforcing the importance of recycling and responsible consumption.
Such initiatives are a part of the school’s broader mission to instill eco-conscious values in its students and empower them to become responsible global citizens.

Grade II Explores the Cosmos at Nehru Planetarium!

What an astronomical adventure our Grade II students had on July 3, 2025! 

All our young explorers, accompanied by their teachers, embarked on an exciting trip to the Nehru Planetarium in Delhi.

It was a truly stellar learning experience! Our students were absolutely captivated by the immersive show, where they journeyed through our solar system, discovered distant stars, and learned fascinating facts about the universe. Their curiosity shone as brightly as the stars they observed, as they explored the exhibits and engaged in lively discussions about the cosmos.

This trip was a wonderful opportunity to spark their interest in science and the vast wonders beyond our planet. We're incredibly proud of their enthusiasm and engagement!
