Core Green Initiatives

Afforestation Drives

Students and staff plant and maintain trees across campus through regular afforestation drives, building a living green cover the school stewards year after year.

The C.C. Anthony Bio Diversity Park

Ecosystem Visits

Field visits to local ecosystems — including our own Bio Diversity Park — take classroom biology outdoors, connecting students directly to the landscapes and habitats around them.

Students planting in a paddy field

Organic Agriculture

Hands-on farming on campus, including mulberry farming and paddy & turmeric cultivation, teaches students the full cycle of sustainable food production. A dedicated hydroponics lab extends this further, letting students grow crops without soil as a hands-on science practicum.
