Nature Club, The Lawrence School, Lovedale

DSC_0823On 6th March 2016 a trek was conducted for the students of the Nature club by NNHS on their campus. We have resumed our weekly Friday meetings where current conservation issues such as biodiversity of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve, deforestation, identification of native species, the threat of alien invasive species are discussed. We also plan on running activities such as creation of a plant nursery of native species and a small afforestation program.DSC_0856

This program helps students refine their observational skills, interact with the landscape and life forms of the region and express their connection to their environment using their chosen medium of communication.DSC_0006
