In a commendable step toward experiential learning, PM SHRI GHS Morpirla conducted an impactful Agro Drive that connected students directly with nature and the agricultural roots of their community. Held on the school’s premises and nearby farmlands, the event provided a practical introduction to farming, food production, and environmental responsibility.
Learning Through Doing
Rather than just reading about agriculture in textbooks, students got a hands-on opportunity to engage in real agricultural activities — from preparing the soil and planting seeds to learning how to tend to crops responsibly. They experienced firsthand the physical labor and patience required to grow food, which cultivated both appreciation and awareness.
Farming with a Purpose
The drive also introduced the students to sustainable farming practices such as composting, organic pest control, and water conservation methods. Teachers and local experts explained how these methods support both the environment and long-term food security. It was a clear reminder that agriculture and sustainability go hand-in-hand.
Lessons That Stay Rooted
Beyond the practical knowledge, the Agro Drive fostered values like teamwork, respect for nature, and discipline. Many students shared that the experience changed their perspective on food and the work of farmers. They left with not just muddy hands but minds filled with valuable insights.
An Ongoing Commitment
PM SHRI GHS Morpirla’s Agro Drive is part of a broader effort to integrate life skills and real-world awareness into the education system. By introducing such meaningful initiatives, the school is sowing the seeds of a generation that’s not only academically equipped but also environmentally conscious and socially responsible.
The success of this drive is a testament to the power of field-based learning — turning students into stewards of sustainability, one seed at a time.
