Kids pledge social service in free time
Eight primary school children of Madhya Dhanghara village in Gaibandha Sadar upazila have set a laudable example of rendering voluntary services that would bring beneficial effects for the society.
The eight kids, all students of Class V and playmates, initiated their noble venture by removing weeds from a bigha of aman field through free service during their weekly holiday of last Friday.
They are Mosharaf Hossain Miki and Jibon Ahmed of Shakhawat Hossain Memorial School, Ridoy Mia of Sabuj Sena Bidya Niketon, Sohag of Ashamoni Kindergarten School, Shipon, Limon Mia, Hitlu Ahmed and Ripon Mia of Madhya Dhanghara Government Primary School.
On Friday morning, the eight kids played football at a local ground. While returning home on foot along the boundary line of crop lands, they got down in an aman field and started removing weeds.
“I saw the kids removing weeds from the aman field of one Zoha Mia. All the weeds from one bigha of land got cleared as they worked for two hours. I was really happy to see their selfless work," said local farmer Mozammel Huq, an eyewitness of the act.
“We the playmates decided to do something good for the society during the leisure time, which would encourage others,” said Mosharaf Hossain Miki.
“As part of our programme we have cleared weeds from a crop field, although we don't know the land owner. And we did it with bare hands,” he added.
Appreciating the kids' initiative, Abdul Aziz, headmaster of Madhya Dhanghara Government Primary School, said, “We should encourage tender-minded children to develop good qualities.”
