Stop this cruelty!

First Prize

I am an animal
I can tell you about my sadness
I can tell you about my madness
God has given me life
Which I spend looking at a knife
I don’t want this life!
When people eat me, they say that it’s so nice,
Some people eat me with rice
People buy me in shops
When there are so many crops!
I guess you all know who I am-
I am a fish!
Who has to say bye- bye
But before going I want to say
Stop this cruelty.

Sanya Mangal

IV A

Stop This Cruelty

I am a monkey
And I live on the trees
Even the bees
Live on the trees
I was very happy but not any more
Do you know why?
You cut down the things we live in!
Day and night and at dawn!
Please do not cut down the forest!
We also want to rest.
Sometimes I wish I could fly,
But let me say Goodbye!

 

Louise Hampell

IV D

I am a tiger
I am hunted for my skin
I try to win
But I just can’t !
Why do people hunt me down and not an ant?
I wish I was human
No one hunts a man.
This is the cruelty of life.

Varun Govil

Stop this cruelty
Have some humanity
Killing an animal and eating it?
Taming a dog and beating it?

Who understands how it feels to be beaten-then and now.
OH STOP THIS CRUELTY!

Stop This Cruelty
(Fourth Pize)

I am a fish
You can eat me in a dish
But I wish
There would be no oil spill.
If there is one I will get ill.
But you know for pills I need to pay bills.
So lets join our hands and say no to oil spills.
If not, you can pay my bills!

Appreciation
Stop this cruelty


What of a crab?
You kill it!
You eat it!
You say that it’s Yum
I want some more.
Just think-
Wont the crab get hurt?
Wouldn’t it be in pain?
The crab also has its life.
It also has a right to live.
The crab would feel so bad!
STOP THIS CRUELTY!

Rajasi Sabherwal

IV A

Stop this cruelty
Appreciation


Stop this Cruelty
I am an animal
That lives in a burrow.
People eat me with a knife and a fork
Or they lock me in a cage for display.
I am a cute looking creature
With two big ears.
As I am too cute I get captured
And have to be someone’s pet.
So stop this cruelty!
I also need freedom
Animals need their freedom.
Stop! Stop ! Stop this cruelty.

Dash Yeoh

IVA

Appreciation

Stop This Cruelty
I am a monkey
An arboreal animal
With four limbs
Man kills me and uses my skin
For purses belts and many more things.
I feel unhappy that they do this to me.
Stop this cruelty right now! I say right now!
So you can see us swinging brightly
Don’t cut trees and take away our homes
Stop this cruelty! I say, stop it right now!

Aryan Mittal

Appreciation
Stop this Cruelty


I am a bunny rabbit
I live in a burrow
My favourit food is carrot
I am endangered because of my fur.
And then, animals which have fur
Are endangered because of their fur.
I pray to God that me must not be endangered any longer.
We know God that you will not lead people into temptation.
‘We all are endangered! Don’t kill us!’

Suraj Jain

IV B

Stop This Cruelty


I am a monkey
I live on trees
You are destroying my home
Stop this cruelty
Stop this cruelty!
I am a crab
I live in water
You can find me on restaurant plates
Stop this cruelty
Stop this cruelty!

Be kind to Animals

FIRST PRIZE
Be kind to animals
They are sweet and kind to us.
We should love them and treat them nicely
Animals are friendly.

Some eat fish
Animals are sweet not sour.
I love animals.

Some are tigers and lions.
Some are sweet and sour
But, be kind to animals.

Janvi Singh

Second Prize

Be kind to Animals
Animals also have a heart
We can’t force them to pull a go-cart
They have a special day
We can’t make a perfect model with clay.
Do not hurt them ever- in your way
They give us so many products day after day.

Harsh

Animals are beautiful

Animals are fun

But some are paying a price

Some are short

Some are nice

But some are funny.

Please be kind to pets
Because they can be upset
Please help them
And do not blame them

Sometimes they eat rice
Take out your bike
And give them a ride.

Green Memories…

Shiv Grover as the Polar Bear in Santa’s Message 2007 . (The Ice is Melting)

The Kabadiwallah’s  , the housewives and the  R R R messengers in the play Oh Kabadiwallah!

The trip to TERI GRAM
Wow! It was utterly wonderful! I couldn’t believe my eyes. We went on a trip with  Ameeta Ma’am who wanted to  take us a step forward in our knowledge about  Environmental Conservation. We saw gigantic solar panels, and airconditioners that used the underground air! We had a talk about vermi-composting and saw deep pits filled with dry leaves. There were 2000 worms in one pit for decomposing the leaves. I was on the verge of asking ma’am to let me gift some worms to my parents! I’d like to conclude that this trip helped us to understand  what we could  do to protect nature and maintain a balance in our eco system.

Pizzas in solar cookers after the trip to TERI !
