Save the Sparrows: Aitchison College's Mission to Protect a Vanishing Species
The Preparatory School, Aitchison College, in collaboration with the Departments of Art and Science, is on a mission to instill love and awareness for indigenous sparrows—a species now teetering on the brink of extinction. These small and harmless birds are disappearing at an alarming rate due to habitat loss, environmental changes, and increased vulnerability to predators.
To combat this crisis, our students have embarked on a meaningful initiative. They began by researching the challenges sparrows face in today’s rapidly changing world. Inspired by their findings, they took action—installing bird nests across the campus, advocating for the release of caged sparrows, and fostering a culture of empathy and environmental stewardship.
But their efforts didn’t stop there. To spread awareness and creativity, our students designed insightful comic strips depicting the sparrow’s life journey—its struggles, fading habitats, and most importantly, the hope for its survival. Through art, science, and true compassion, Aitchison College is nurturing a generation committed to protecting these beautiful birds before it’s too late. Join us in giving sparrows a chance to exist.
