Talking on the occasion Principal Eugien Gujranwala John added, "We must protect the Earth and respect and safeguard the many forms of life it is a home to. The Earth does not simply belong to us. Millions and millions of our children have an indisputable right to it too. We must keep our earth safe for them too."
