Venue: Biodiversity Park, FTI, Haldwani
WhiteHall organized an enriching educational excursion to the Biodiversity Park for the students of Grade 10. The primary objective of this trip was to foster awareness about the significance of biodiversity and the urgent need to protect our natural ecosystems.
The journey began early in the morning with a short, pleasant bus ride to the park. Upon arrival, students and teachers were warmly welcomed by a knowledgeable park guide, who gave an insightful introduction about the park’s origin, its purpose, and ecological importance. Nestled amidst lush greenery, the park spans a vast area and harbors a remarkable variety of flora and fauna.
As students strolled through the winding paths, they were introduced to numerous species of trees, medicinal herbs, vibrant flowering plants, and dense shrubs. The serene environment echoed with the chirping of birds, and some students were fortunate enough to spot squirrels, butterflies, and other small creatures in their natural habitat. The guide thoughtfully explained how every species—big or small—plays a vital role in sustaining the ecological balance.
The key attractions of the visit included the mesmerizing Butterfly Pollination Garden, the tranquil Aquatic Garden, the intriguing Cactus Garden, the adventurous Zurrasic Park, and the informative Interpretation Centre. Each zone offered a unique learning experience, blending fun with education.
Students also explored a compact but well-organized information centre, where eye-catching posters and detailed models showcased the astonishing diversity of animals and birds.
The visit left an indelible impression on every student — a reminder that nature is not just to be admired, but cherished and safeguarded. With renewed respect for the environment and a deeper sense of responsibility, we returned with one clear message: ‘When we protect nature, we secure our future.’
