OUR TRASH GETS REPURPOSED FOR REUSE AND REDUCED CONSUMPTION OF RAW MATERIALS. With this approach, an awareness programme was organized for students are to train them in recycled art which is a creative work that's made from discarded materials that once had another purpose.

Students from classes 4 to 8 learnt the art of recycling the waste materials by making beautiful Rakhis and dolls out of it. In children it triggers their imagination, enhanced creativity & problem-solving skills.

They also learnt to get rooted to their culture which teaches them discipline, ethics and moral values which needs to be carried everytimewhenever they are exposed to the world.

Cultural values bind them together which makes them strong and united. It makes them learn tolerance and understand brother hood which paves the path of social harmony, economic and improvement and physical well-being of the community and others.

 Students also learnt to reduce consumption of raw materials, save and conserve natural resources.

Recycled art was used to promote social awareness and encourage conservation about sustainability and environmentalism especially in the younger generations.
