Students participated enthusiastically 
Ludhiana: 19 March 2015: (Punjab Screen Bureau): 
Tree plantation drive was carried out by Students of Oliver House, Preschool and Daycare, within their school premises. Students participated enthusiastically towards this good deed towards mother nature and mankind. Smiles ran on their faces as their small and tender hands dug scraps of ground to plant a sapling in the soil. Each child adopted a tree and pledged towards nurturing it.
This activity done in a playful manner was meant to be an important lesson for these young minds where they were taught the importance of plants, water and soil. This activity also contributed towards sensory exploration of colours and fragrances.
Oliver House Preschool, in Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar, is a Indian –British Venture for Early Years of Education, where the focus is on overall development of the child with learning goals set by UK’s EYFS (early years of foundation stage) system. Tree Plantation activity was planned under the ‘UNDERSTANDING THE WORLD’ area of Learning & Development .
Principal Sumeet Kaur, shared her views ‘Someday these young seeds, just like our young children, will grow into mature trees giving fruit, shelter and fresh air. They would stand against every odd and every season. They always give, always serve. They teach us a very meaningful lesson. So at Oliver House™,  we are committed to work on more programmes like this to initiate a widespread vision for the betterment of our environment and developing our children into responsible citizens of tomorrow.”
Oliver House also supports the “Nanhi chhaan” and “Beti Bachao, Beti Padao” movement started by government. Girl child is given special privileges in admission fees as well as tuition fees.
