From Seed to Sprout: Empowering Future Generations Through the Veggie4School Programme
In the heart of Cleveland Town, amidst the hustle and bustle of city life, BBMP Girls High School Cleveland Town stands as a beacon of education and empowerment. In the 8th grade, a group of bright and enthusiastic students, including Dilashad Banu, Keerthi S A, Mithra R, and Priyadarshini V, embarked on a journey of discovery through Chapter 4 of the Veggie4School Programme: “From Seed to Sprout.”
Under the stewardship of Headmaster Mr. Venkataraju, these young scholars embraced every activity with fervor and enthusiasm. From the intricate anatomy of seeds to the transformative process of germination, they soaked in knowledge like thirsty roots seeking nourishment from the soil.
Despite the challenges of urban living, the students of BBMP Girls High School Cleveland Town eagerly participated in every aspect of the chapter. With nimble fingers and curious minds, they explored the mysteries of seed separation, marveling at the diversity of shapes, sizes, and textures. As they carefully examined each seed, from Hajira to Saba Fathima, they discovered the inherent potential for growth and transformation that lay dormant within.
As they progressed to the practical aspects of the chapter, the students eagerly embraced the opportunity to sow their own seeds. With determination and grit, they filled pots with rich soil, their hands working in harmony with the earth to create the perfect environment for growth. With each seed carefully placed and each drop of water lovingly administered, they nurtured the promise of new life, embodying the spirit of empowerment and resilience.
Throughout the chapter, the students at BBMP Girls High School Cleveland Town exhibited a hunger for knowledge and a thirst for growth. With every observation recorded in their Plant Detective Journals, from Sarika N to Zohrabi, they forged a deeper connection with the natural world, becoming stewards of the environment and champions of sustainability.
