REPORT ON ACTIVITIES AND COMPETITIONS HELD TO PROMOTE BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION

In support of the initiative started by the National Biodiversity Authority , Government of India to promote ‘Biodiversity conservation and sustainable development’ , the Scientia Club Of St Cecilia’s public school , Vikaspuri, New Delhi organized different activities and competitions for the school children.

In the Primary Wing, for classes IV to V, an in-class group discussion activity was conducted with the theme ‘Exploring the Wealthy Plant Kingdom: From the Human Utility lens’. Students were encouraged to collect information, explore the diverse potential of different plants in the vast plant kingdom and share the information with their classmates in an attractive way. The activity witnessed blooming enthusiasm wherein the students used plant parts, pictures, extract from encyclopedias to enrichen their collective knowledge on the wealthy plant kingdom. The main aim of the activity was to make the students realize that nature has made each and every plant so unique and bestowed it with such special potential which no other plant has. Hence, we need to conserve each and every plant species, to not deprive ourselves from this great wealth of nature in future. 

In the middle wing, for classes VI to VIII , to enrichen students knowledge about the diverse life forms  and  to premise the significance of their conservation , ‘Biodiversity Encyclopedia Design Competition’ was held. All students of a class designed an individual sheet of encyclopedia wherein they depicted interesting amazing facts about any one species of plants or animals in an informative yet attractive way. The students then assembled the diverse sheets together to create a self designed Biodiversity Encyclopedia for their class. This activity not only made the children aware about diverse forms on life on earth but also laid the foundation of the significance of promoting biodiversity owing to their unique existence in nature.

In the Senior Wing, for classes IX to X, ‘Biodiversity Conservation Logo design Competition’ was held. This Competition gave the unique platform to students to apply their scientific understanding of importance of biodiversity, food chain, food web , human survival and sustainability , in the form of a creative design. This activity aimed to utilize visual tools, in the form of a logo design, to explain the complex concepts of interwoven life forms and co-survival of species , to give across the strong message of importance of biodiversity conservation in the present times. The competition witnessed beautiful intellectual designs, wherein the aesthetic sensibilities were triggered to give across a strong message for conservation of all life forms.

In the last week of August and first week of September, with the help of posters, charts, flash cards, banners and flow charts various important concepts of ‘Biodiversity conservation and sustainable development’ were explained to children in an informative yet attractive way.

The spiral of the above mentioned activities, competitions and assembly theme lines , saw all the students of classes IV to XII come together with a reflective pledge and the common objective of taking each and every possible step to conserve biodiversity and progress ahead on the path of sustainability.
