Sir Nilesh Pai, Programme Officer of the school briefed the students on the NSS aims & objectives, their role as volunteers, the pride of wearing NSS Badge while performing any NSS activity and later students took NSS Oath/Pledge and Pledge of Swachhta. Students were also informed about the importance of Swachhta Hi Seva by an awareness talk on Intercom by NSS volunteer Iliyan Nazarali.


The volunteers, including students, P.O's, and teachers, gathered at the Panjim Municipal Market to clean various areas both inside and around the market premises. Additionally, a group of Social Reach Out Club and NSS volunteers, led by Tr. Archana Shetye, performed an awareness skit on "Swachhata Hi Seva" to emphasize the significance of maintaining cleanliness and a green environment. This was followed by a Swachhta rally back to school.

The cleanliness drive proved to be a resounding success. Students gained environmental awareness, teamwork, and civic responsibility through the cleanliness drive while earning recognition.
