Nature Club of Pakistan has been there and carrying out phenomenal activities throughout Pakistan in regards to environment and nature. The club held events like Recycling Exhibition and Rose Shows that drew the attention of a number of schools and school children towards the club and its activities. It is by involving educational institutions that Nature Club of Pakistan throws its noble messages to maximum number of people.
The club creates awareness about betterment for the environment and conservation of nature by involving students in different entertaining activities such as drawing, poetry, photography and much more. This, in turn, attracts large numbers of school children towards nature and its concerns. Nature Club of Pakistan not only supports those who like to work for the environment, but also take steps in order to encourage those who have been a part of nature conservation or programs relating to its awareness.
Thus, in order to congratulate the students who had worked with the club on behalf of their schools and participated with great zeal and zest in its activities, Nature Club of Pakistan set out to openly praise
their works. It was after a series of successful and widely attended events and competitions. Nature Club of Pakistan held a certificate/titles/medals distribution ceremony at Beaconhouse School System, Liberty Campus Lahore, Pakistan. The ceremony was held to honor the winners of contests and to create a healthy competition amongst students in order to encourage them to work more and better for the environment.
It was on 27th of April 2010, that the team of Nature Club of Pakistan arrived early at Beaconhouse Liberty Campus, well before the students could start off with their classes. It took the Nature Club team nearly two hours to set the arena and prepare for the event. Students were seen really excited about the results of the competitions and they started to move into the hall much earlier than they were supposed to. A visual screening was arranged for teachers and students who had arrived into the hall before the ceremony could start. This screening showed topography and culture of the historical city of Lahore.
At 11:00am, two members of the club brought into the hall, the principal of Beaconhouse Liberty Campus, Miss. Jenny M. Rasoga.
She was then introduced to the wonderful works done by the creative students from different schools around the country and the art teachers who had helped them to do this work. These items were exhibited on tables surrounding the rear half of the arena. Members of the Nature Club of Pakistan conducted the whole event themselves from opening the event to arranging the certificates in order to carrying out all the speeches. Throughout the ceremony, Miss. Jenny M. Rasoga was accompanied by the head of Nature Club of Pakistan, Mr. Raza Khan, even when the two were giving away the certificates. The event continued with the announcement of results and the cheerful crowd joyfully praising the winners and ended with a humbled speech of the principal of Beaconhouse Liberty Campus, Miss.
