Have A Great Summer Holiday!

Dear boys,

It has been an honour to contribute to your upbringing this year.

For about nine months I have watched you grow and become the confident and independent boys you are today.
It was a joy to live with you everyday. Your smiles, your efforts, every time you said “thank you” … this gave me strength and helped me overcome difficult times.
We have learned so much from each other,  and we have grown close day by day until we became a part of each other. We have spent wonderful times together, we have made ourselves beautiful memories that we will carry with us forever.
You have made your parents and all of us proud! now enjoy your young and beautiful lives!
Have a great and well-deserved Summer Holiday!
Mr Salva.

WORLD OCEANS DAY!

WHY CELEBRATE WORLD OCEANS DAY?

A healthy world ocean is critical to our survival. Every year, World Oceans Day provides a unique opportunity to honor, help protect, and conserve the world’s oceans. Oceans are very important:

  • They generate most of the oxygen we breathe
  • They help feed us
  • They regulate our climate
  • They clean the water we drink
  • They offer a pharmacopoeia of medicines
  • They provide limitless inspiration!

NOW EACH OF US CAN GIVE BACK

Participate in a World Oceans Day event or activity this year and help protect the ocean for the future! It’s up to each one of us to help ensure that our ocean is healthy for future generations. World Oceans Day allows us to:

  • Change perspective – encourage individuals to think about what the ocean means to them and what it has to offer all of us with hopes of conserving it for present and the future generations.
  • Learn – discover the wealth of diverse and beautiful ocean creatures and habitats, how our daily actions affect them, and how we are all interconnected.
  • Change our ways – we are all linked to, and through, the ocean! By taking care of your backyard and helping in your community, you are acting as a caretaker of our ocean. Making small modifications to your everyday habits will make a difference, and involving your family, friends, and community will benefit our blue planet even more!
  • Celebrate – whether you live inland or on the coast, we are all connected to the ocean. Take the time to think about how the ocean affects you, and how you affect the ocean, and then organize or participate in activities that celebrate our ocean.

HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED?

It’s fun and easy! This site was developed as a free resource for everyone around the world to use:

Despite the huge challenges facing the world’s ocean, by working together we can support a healthy ocean that is able to sustainably provide for the billions of humans, plants, and animals that depend on it every day. On World Oceans Day, people around our blue planet celebrate and honor the ocean, which connects us all. Get together with your family, friends, community, and the planet to start creating a better future. Working together, we can and will protect our shared ocean. We hope you will be a part of this growing global celebration!

Gardening Update…

Last few chilies and tomatoes transplanted today… no more land available in our garden… potatoes are growing bigger and bigger and taking all the space ?

The boys are doing an amazing job, watering and looking after their plants on a daily basis.

It was a long journey… started at the end of February. The boys have researched what type of vegetable/fruits can grow in this season and in this part of the world.

They have chosen their seeds and planted them with enthusiasm and care.

Many of the plants died due to the bad weather condition and only very few of those seeds are now healthy plants.

The boys have certainly learnt how difficult it is  to “fill a plate with food” and they are now more aware of the hard work required behind every product we eat. In our hearts we hope they will set a good example to their peers and there will be less wastage of food…
