A Pioneering Initiative: Safe Diwali Campaign by Peer Educators 

As the festival of lights brings warmth to homes and hearts, Blue Bells once again demonstrates that true celebration shines brightest when it is filled with care, awareness, and shared responsibility. Guided by this vision, the Health & Wellness Programme launched a powerful Awareness Campaign on ‘Safe & Green Diwali’ This campaign was led by our dedicated Peer Educators under the Peer Educator Led Programme, initiated through Adept- A Program For Enhancing Life Skills powered by Wellnesswise.in. Dr. Alka Saxena, Associate Director (Social and Emotional Learning), BBGS, provided steadfast inspiration for this initiative. Ma’am’s commitment to holistic well-being gave the project clarity, strength, and purpose. 

To spark awareness, the Peer Educators created and shared a thought-provoking video that combined messages of environmental care, community support, and responsible celebration. The core message was clear and impactful: Say No to Crackers — Celebrate a Safe & Green Diwali. 

Carrying this spirit into the community, the Health & Wellness Team, along with the Peer Educators of BD Blue Bells Public School, organised a Social Outreach Programme on October 16, 2025, at Gurgaon One, Sector 84. The students presented an engaging street play (Nukkad Natak) that inspired residents to celebrate Diwali as a time for reflection, compassion, and care for environment. 

This initiative is more than just a campaign; it is a transformative learning experience that nurtures empathy, accountability, and sustainable thinking in young minds. Through their actions and voices, our students became change makers, lighting not only lamps but also minds and hearts.  

Together, we can turn Diwali into a festival that brightens lives, safeguards our planet, and inspires future generations to live consciously.
