Celebrating Environment and International Yoga Day at Streevani Skill Center, Ekamba

On June 21, 2025, the Streevani Skill Center, Ekamba, marked Environment Day and International Yoga Day with great enthusiasm at the Gram Panchayat premises. The celebration saw active participation from 100 students 80 from the Government School and 20 from St. Paul School alongside trainees from the Skill Center.

The day began with a sapling plantation drive at the Government School campus, followed by an awareness rally to the Gram Panchayat. Participants raised slogans promoting environmental protection.

A yoga and meditation session inspired attendees to embrace holistic wellness. A symbolic planting ceremony highlighted the theme “Save Earth, Save Trees,” with Ms. Soniya explaining the environmental symbolism of the pot, soil, plant, and water. Students and guests joined in planting and watering saplings.

The program featured speeches on environmental conservation and the significance of yoga. Certificates were awarded to students trained in computer skills, tailoring, and beauty parlour courses. The event concluded with a collective pledge to protect the environment. Each participant received a tomato sapling as a reminder of their commitment.

Water is life – Save water and boost life.
