We love to listen to stories.What better way to connect to Nature than through stories? Ms.Vijita narrated a story of a tree that is a friend forever.Here's a journal entry by a student :
In the auditorium today, Vijita ma’am narrated her version of a popular story 'Giving Tree' to all the students of 7th grade. It spoke of a tree which felt pleased to help a man despite the pain he had to endure in order to do it. The tree never regretted helping his friend. The tree knew him since he was a young boy with black curly hair ,bright shiny eyes and dimples on his cheek. The story ends when the tree stump and the old man share each other's experience.
At all times when the man faced predicaments , he approached his old friend without expecting any reward, yet the tree always found a solution to the man's problem. The story depicted the beautiful relationship the man shared with the tree.
