In a heartfelt celebration of World Environment Day, students of Sri Venkateswara Middle School in Nanganallur undertook a tree saplings planting initiative on June 11, 2025. The activity saw enthusiastic participation as students, along with teachers and staff, planted saplings around the school campus, including the school playground. Though World Environment Day was officially observed on June 5, the school extended the spirit of the occasion by organising the event later in the week to ensure full student involvement. The aim was not only to beautify the school but also to instill a sense of environmental responsibility among young learners. The event concluded with a short awareness session where students pledged to care for the plants and spread the message of environmental protection within their communities. Besides, the students and teachers took a pledge to protect the environment.
