Came last night in my dream He told!

Words cannot express the emotions that a mother carries for her children deep in her heart. She works for the family recklessly without demanding anything in return. A day can never compensate her endless efforts. Mother’s Day was celebrated on 9th of this May as a small effort to make her realise the pivotal role she plays in the family. The students from PG to Class VI did various activities to show their love and concern for their mothers. We present to you the collage of beautiful pics sent by our little darlings with their beautiful MOMS!!!

Earth Day is observed on April 22 consistently to raise awareness for Earth’s environment. The theme of Earth day 2021 is ‘Restore Our Earth’.

We at Delhi Public School Aligarh believe in imparting values for holistic development of the students. The activities conducted on Earth Day were to encourage them to reflect on what we are doing to make our planet a more sustainable and living place. The climate change and the pandemic have reminded us of the harm we’ve caused. Thus, we must Restore Our Earth not just because we care about the natural world, but because we live on it. Keeping the theme in mind various activities were conducted.
