Bird-watching and Photography workshop

The 235-acre AVS campus is a haven for both migratory and non-migratory birds. In order to celebrate and build awareness in the community towards the preservation and conservation of this rich bio-diversity, a bird-watching and photography workshop was conducted at The Assam Valley School under the aegis of the AVS Environmental Studies Department & the AVS Photographic Society from the 28th of February to the 2nd of March 2023.
The resource person was Mrs. Anu Parthasarathy from Bengaluru. Mrs. Parthasarathy is a well-known wildlife conservationist. According to Mrs. Parthasarthy ‘It was great to see the students and staff members participate with enthusiasm and get curious to learn about the birds in their environments’.
The team of students and teachers was able to identify 46 species on campus over the 4 days of bird walks. It was an enriching experience and drilled home the privilege and responsibility of living in a green community such as the school campus.
