World Environment Day celebrations focused on the theme of reducing plastic use. The school community united to engage in various environmentally friendly activities, including sapling planting, seed sowing, litter collection, and the creation of a compost pit for biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste. Students delivered speeches and performed skits and role-plays to raise awareness about conservation. Principal Vishwas Sharma stressed the importance of adopting eco-conscious habits such as avoiding single-use plastics and planting trees at home. "We must work together to build a greener, plastic-free future," he said. The event aimed to inspire students to become responsible custodians of the environment and to take active measures against plastic pollution.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
