PARTICIPATES IN

“Say NO to Plastic campaign”

The interact Club of M.L. Khanna DAV Dwarka recently participated in a “Say NO to Plastic Campaign” initiated by the school which began with a plastic collection drive, where the interactors contributed discarded plastic bottles from their homes. These bottles were then collected by the interactors. All the students then gathered near the dinosaur structure made of scrap metal in the school premises and threw these bottles into the extinct animal. This was done to indicate that; just like Dinosaurs have become extinct, we need to make plastics extinct from the planet by discouraging the use of plastic. The interactors participated wholeheartedly in the event to make it a huge success.

 With the onset of  monsoon season comes the threat of rise in the number of dengue cases. The Interact Club of M L Khanna DAV Public School, Dwarka organized  Dengue Awareness Campaign to spread consciousness about dengue and promote a safer and healthier learning environment in school.

A special assembly was organized to spread awareness about the importance of proper environment sanitation in the fight against dengue fever. A speech highlighting the causes, possible breeding sites of dengue mosquito and home remedies to prevent it was presented by interactor Aditya Pande. An interesting presentation by interactors dressed up like an aedes egypti mosquito conveyed the do’s and don’t’s of dengue. Interactor Misthi Gupta recited a self-composed poem on Dengue. A quiz was also conducted to test the awareness level of students on dengue. Prizes were given to the winners.

Dengue Awareness Campaign was also carried out wherein the interactors educated students of Pre-School to Class IV about dengue mosquito. Sites like flower pots with water were deliberately created in the school for the drive. The students guided by the interactors visited those sites wearing masks and gloves. Preventive and self protection measures to ‘Fight the Bite’ were elucidated to the school populace. Kerosene was sprayed by the gardener on the spot to demonstrate ways to kill the dengue mosquito. Students were encouraged to share the information gained on the fatal disease with their classmates and parents.
