Date: 05 February 2025
Time: 10:00 AM
The Biological Science Club of MAHE Co-operative College of Teacher Education, Mahe conducted a Tree Planting Programme on 5th February 2025 at 10:00 AM with the aim of promoting environmental conservation, enhancing campus greenery, and fostering ecological awareness among students. The initiative encouraged students to take part in protecting the environment through practical action.
The programme began with a brief introduction on the importance of tree planting, highlighting its role in improving air quality, increasing biodiversity, reducing pollution, and combating climate change. Students were reminded that planting and nurturing trees is one of the most effective contributions individuals can make toward a sustainable future.
Participants, along with faculty members, gathered in designated areas of the campus to plant a variety of saplings. Students worked enthusiastically, preparing the soil, planting saplings, watering them, and placing protective coverings to ensure their healthy growth. The event promoted teamwork, responsibility, and hands-on learning, helping students connect theoretical concepts of biology with real-world environmental practices.
Throughout the activity, coordinators guided students on proper planting techniques and the long-term care required for the saplings. The importance of preserving native plant species and maintaining ecological balance was emphasized. Students also discussed the significance of environmental stewardship and their role in building a greener campus.
The programme concluded with appreciation from faculty coordinators, who encouraged students to regularly monitor the growth of the planted saplings and continue participating in eco-friendly initiatives. The Tree Planting Programme was a meaningful and impactful initiative, reflecting the Biological Science Club’s commitment to fostering environmental responsibility, scientific awareness, and sustainable practices among students.
