Planting Trees and conserving nature

On 11 July 2025, the Ministry of Education organized the “Ek ped Maa ke naam 2.0” campaign for planting a tree to show our tribute to our own mother as well as to protect Mother Earth. 18 primary students of Auxilium Convent School, Ghutiapara, together with their sisters and teachers, with great joy, planted different types of trees around the school premises. Students were very happy to nurture the soil and plant trees to protect our Mother Earth. This campaign brought a deep sense of responsibility towards nature, exemplifying the spirit of Mission Life and the lifestyle of the environment.
