Thaliparamba: A feast for ants, birds, and other species was hosted in the three-acre biodiversity park of Ezhom Kottila Government Higher Secondary School under the aegis of the school’s NSS volunteers.

As part of their mid-day meal, the students shared fruits, sugar, and jaggery with ants, birds, and other species on the school campus. The programme, organised in connection with the World Food Day celebrations, was titled ‘Urumboott’ (Feast for Ants).

The initiative aimed at spreading the message that, alongside humans, all living beings, both big and small, have an equal right to the earth and its resources.

Programme Officer V C Shyma, Principal B Biju Kumar, H B Unnikrishnan, T Balakrishnan, P Deepa, C Jeeja, P S Anju, M. Lajitha and K Anitha, along with NSS volunteers Anjitha, Riya, Kashyap, Sreehari, and Ananya, led the initiative.
