Stories and reflections from students whose lives SAMDAN has touched
As a student of grade 11 (science faculty), I had passed my SEE from Lunar English Boarding School. There were many extra clubs and activities in our school, and I started my journey in the eco club (SAMDAN Children-BEEP) from grade six to grade ten. I have gained great skills regarding waste and its utilization which play a vital role in daily life. My school before SAMDAN concept was not eco-developed and was poor in waste management but when it linked with SAMDAN Children BEEP, a vast difference was seen before and after. It taught us to separate waste in three ways — kitchen, plastic and paper — and to plant trees to make the environment green and clean. I learnt to make greeting cards, decorating items and many other items from recycled plastic and paper. Also I learnt to make compost manure from degradable items.
SAMDAN Children-BEEP is very important for other schools/students as well because in the 21st century only writing and reading isn't enough. Learning extra skills and creative attitudes is today's need. It teaches us an appropriate policy and strategic framework. Now even our small juniors have knowledge about waste. SAMDAN Children-BEEP made, is making, and will make schools/students apprised of solid waste management.
Hi! I am Anjana Shrestha. I completed my school at Abhiyan Public School and I am doing my bachelor's in the United States. I was in grade 9 when our school first collaborated with SAMDAN Children BEEP. At first, we students had a small discussion class with Devendra sir and other members of the organization on what this organization is and how it would work. It got me excited.
As a result of working together, it brought drastic changes in our school's waste management system — increment in safety and health of students and teachers, every waste managed properly in different dustbins. The collaboration with SAMDAN Children-BEEP not only brought changes in our school but also in every student's house and life. I was motivated to use the same technique at home, helping me organize waste in a proper way that maintained a healthy environment. The times I worked with members of SAMDAN Children-BEEP and the lessons learned from Devendra Sir and his teams are life-lasting. I want to thank Devendra Sir and each member of the organization. It was a great honor to work with them, and I believe such collaboration with more schools should be enhanced so we can make a safe environment around us.
