HEAL THE EARTH

Dear Parents

We all live on planet earth, which is the only planet known to have life……..Mother Earth is the womb of

the sustaining power of humanity. We are nurtured by the healthy condition of Mother Earth. In humans,

if the mother is ailing, the child suffers. In the womb, the child is helpless. But in our case, it is the mother

who is helpless. We, humans are the cause of the ailing planet. We are deteriorating natural resources,

diminishing forests and wetlands, depleting underground water for our own selfish requirements. The

consequences are loss of biodiversity, erosion of soil, rapid extinction of some important animal species,

collapse of fisheries, rising air and water pollution, rise in atmospheric temperature, thinning of ozone

layer, regular shortage of fresh drinking water, vanishing plants etc. The Earth is in trouble because of the

way the modern man has treated Her and for some reason it seems that much of it has to do with human

arrogance rather than ignorance. Even though science and technology have radically altered the terms of

adaptations to the nature, we still need to adapt to the environment and our MOTHER EARTH. We cannot

and must not ignore the cries of our planet to restore a more harmonious relationship with nature, nor

must we lose the opportunity to work harmoniously with each other for common good.

Keeping all these problems and issues in mind, we have taken “HEAL THE EARTH” as the theme for our

Summer Holiday Homework. It will help our children to use their optimum energy, support sustainability,

develop sensitivity, inspire and aware the community towards the need to protect and preserve the

natural assets of our Mother Earth.

On behalf of LAKMS, it is my humble and sincere appeal to all to take positive actions and move from dawn

to dusk towards a greener earth and be green crusaders to spread awareness around us. Let’s all pledge to

protect our planet from ‘Heavy Hands of Humankind’ and implant green thoughts to make our lives a

blessing for the earth.

“Little drops of water Little grains of sand Make the mighty ocean And the beauteous earth” Enjoy the holidays with your kids! God Bless You! With warm regards

Principal Anshu Nakra

“LIVE GREEN, LOVE GREEN, BE GREEN, WE ARE JUST MANKIND…………….. WITHOUT THE EARTH, WE ARE NOTHING.”

to protect and conserve. It will be quite surprising that only 0.26 percent is available as freshwater for people

to use. Water is used for various purposes like agriculture, livestock, industry and power generation and

municipal and rural Water supplier. All living things need water not for only survival but almost for many
