The Ambassador’s visit served as an inspiration for students, encouraging them to think globally while acting responsibly at the local level.
A Symbol of Harmony and Environmental Stewardship

The programme included a thoughtfully curated student-led segment that showcased creativity, confidence, and environmental awareness. A vibrant welcome dance set the tone for the event, followed by an engaging interactive session where students actively participated in discussions around sustainability and environmental challenges.
