K1 and K2 children embarked on a visit to the nearby garden to discover the diverse array of plants nurtured by members of their community. Subsequently, they were introduced to the story of ‘Growing Food Scraps.’ The children gathered food scraps, mainly from vegetables, explored them, and engaged in experiments to foster their growth. Ultimately, the children crafted a poster aimed at promoting awareness about this initiative.
