Republic Day

It was a spectacular day of celebration at HIS,Guindy. The 68th Republic day celebration was focused on the idea “Go Green” with the view to the recent calamity Vardha cyclone that shattered Chennai where all the trees got uprooted. It was none other than Mr.Abdul Ghani who is fondly called the “Green Man of India” and an ardent disciple of Dr.APJ Kalam who presided over the celebration planting trees at the OTA Chennai along with our students from Grade 4 to 7. He gave an inspiring speech on the importance of growing trees, how they help us in our survival, steps to be taken to conserve the trees all around there by motivating to Go Green. He inspired the children with an oath propagating the planting of trees. The Oath goes on like this,
“Mother Earth Mother Earth Mother Earth Taking care of us so far Now the time has come for us To take care of you. Thank you Mother Earth Mother Earth Mother Earth”
Mr.Abdul Ghani presided over the tree planting ceremony at OTA campus where our students planted the saplings enthusiastically. The cordiality extended by the officers at the OTA needs a special and hearty applause. The staff and students were provided with refreshments. The special arrangements made by the officers at OTA for the tree planting ceremony was quite adorable. Finally, our students from Grade 1 to 7 were presented with tree saplings commemorating our 68th Republic day celebrations with a motive to “Go Green”.
