The month of February 2020 will be remembered for two amazing activities that Anavi members were a part of. The first was the visit to Botanical gardens with the students of Cremers Foundation, Sarsuna.
It was an early start to the Sunday for the Anavi members since the world famous botanical gardens are about an hour’s drive from the school. It was planned as a fun filled educational trip for the young children of Cremers Foundation.
Members took the children for a tour of the gardens and introduced them to some of the rare species of plants. It was also an effort on our part to spread the message of environmental conservation among these young children. Some of the plants are rare and about which they only read in the textbooks.
It was an amazing trip for the young children. Having grown up in the concrete jungle in the heart of the city, spending some time among the trees was like having an out of the world experience. A walk among nature is considered a great antidote to stress. The smiles on the faces of the children, who struggle every day for their basic needs, said it all. To say that the trip was a success would be an understatement.
