World Animal Day


World Animal Day 2020

The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.

– Mahatma Gandhi

As we are reminded of our dear Father of our Nation, we feel obliged to take care of our animals. Flora and fauna are the fundamental parts of the ecosystem. DPGA has thus taken this opportunity to venerate the animals that surround us.

On Monday, the 5th October 2020, our school organised a virtual program christened “World Habitat Day’.

The current pandemic situation did not dampen our beloved children’s mood. They celebrated this day ever so enthusiastically as they donned self-made head gears of their favourite animals proudly.

Each child in their own creative manner participated in the activities, impressing upon the importance of taking care of animals and the significance of each. The virtues of compassion, ethics and love for nature were amongst the many values instilled in our kids through this activity.

Evidently, this activity has created an indelible impression with many souvenirs in the impressionable minds of these tiny tots.

What a wonderful day!!
