IMPHAL, February 19: A one-day cleanliness drive as part of the community service programme of Shishu Nistha Niketan School was held on Wednesday at the school`s campus.
The principal of the school, Nongthombam Elizabeth, said: “Students need to imbibe the culture about cleaning their surroundings and to feel the cleanliness around them which they can start at the school and also in their homes. What they can take away from such a drive is the benefits of having a clean environment, the knowledge of bio-degradable waste materials and the toxic materials.”
The students taking a lesson from this drive may start doing so at their homes. They must learn to keep the environment clean motivating students from other schools to follow in their footsteps, she added.
