As many as 150 students from different schools in the city took part in the “Love Nature” painting competition at the St. Aloysius Higher Primary School on Friday.
The competition was organised jointly by the eco, art and health clubs of the school.
Inaugurating the programme, Rector of St. Aloysius Group of Institutions Dionysius Vaz lauded the idea of making children exhibit their love for nature through art. He said this was the best way to create awareness among children about the need to protect the environment.
