The initiative aimed to encourage children to explore their creativity while introducing them to the importance of environmentally responsible celebrations.

The school premises turned into a creative space as students carefully shaped the clay, giving their idols different designs and forms. The activity not only allowed the children to demonstrate their artistic skills but also conveyed a message of choosing environment-friendly materials during festivals.

Eco-Friendly Message Through Creative Activity

The organisers said the objective was to give students a platform to express themselves while developing a sense of responsibility towards nature. They said introducing children to eco-friendly practices at an early age could help create greater awareness about environmental conservation.
