Workshop on ‘Waste to Wonder”

Date: 13 Feb, 2023

‘Waste to Wonder” is an important concept in the field of sustainability, as it promotes the idea of reducing waste by converting it into aesthetically beautiful decorative artworks.
Plastics are major contributors to global waste and pollution. Besides they generally end up in landfills or the natural ecosystems where it takes hundreds of years for them to decompose. In this workshop at Hansraj College on 13th February, my main emphasis in the interactive session with students would be on recycling of plastic bottles. We will be making a Vertical Garden using old plastic bottles

‘SMILINGTREE GO GREEN WALK‘  held at Lodi Gardens on the 15th January 2012, was a great success and we thank you for the ardent response.
The event hosted by Nirbhay Kwatra, much to our delight, got an overwhelming response from the masses. People from all age groups were not only inquisitive about the cause but were very ‘appreciative’ too. They were surprised to notice a young ten-year-old kid having such awareness and zest for a clean and green environment.

Nirmal Hriday

We at Smiling Tree believe that plants and saplings are the most meaningful and personal gifts one can give. In the same light, gifted the Nirmal Hriday foundation with our creations.

Mother Teresa Plantation

Children from Modern School participated in the event along with the host Nirbhay Kwatra, wherein they planted trees, shrubs, interacted with the Missionaries of charity, met the 215 patients at the Institute. Besides there was a Cake cutting ceremony by the children along with Sister Charming, head of the Missionaries at ‘Nirmal Hriday’, and the cake was subsequently distributed to the patients by the children.

Interaction with Missionaries of charity was a privilege as all of them had the experience to spend time with some truly remarkable women–brave, generous and loving. Meeting the patients there was another remarkable engagement with life, learning to open one’s heart to give and to receive. The art of living now has a new meaning — love others, love yourself and live gratefully.

Modern School

Trees of  different varieties  like  Pink  Cassia, Anjan, Pangar, Ficus Elastica, etc.  were planted  by  Mr Ashok  Pratap  Singh, Honorable  President  Board of  Trustees  Modern  School, Ms Lata  Vaidyanathan, Principal  Modern  School and  others. Three students  of the  school also celebrated their birthday by planting trees. Principal, Ms Lata  Vaidyanathan was  very appreciative  of the  event and  emphasized the importance  for the children  to be involved  in not only plantation of trees but also taking care of them while they grow. She promoted the idea of planting trees to mark a special occasion like birthday etc., or to simply make one’s landscape a little prettier. In desperate need for action against ongoing destruction of natural resources, the truth is ‘every tree makes a difference.’
