Session by a Nutritionist

“Healthy eating is a way of life, so it’s important to establish routines that are simple, realistically and ultimately liveable”.  Arthur Agatston

Good nutrition is essential during childhood, as it is a time for rapid growth and development. Healthy eating habits and patterns are formed in the first few years of life so, it is important to encourage the children to make appropriate food choices. Keeping this in mind, an informative session by a nutritionist was conducted for the students of Pre-nursery, Nursery and Kindergarten on Tuesday, 10th May 2022.

Ms. Mansi Gupta, a Clinical Nutritionist, briefed the children about the importance of eating fresh fruits and vegetables. She encouraged the children to include a wide variety of nutritious foods from all the different food groups. She spoke on the harmful effects of having junk food on our bodies. She shared with the little ones that eating food containing important nutrients help in their physical and mental development. She also encouraged the children to exercise regularly and sleep on time to remain fit and healthy. To review the understanding of the children, she asked a few questions from them. The children responded well and participated enthusiastically while answering the questions.

The learning from the session was reiterated by the class teachers by integrating the topic, ‘Nutritious Diet’, in sync with Sustainable Development Goal 3- Good Health and Well-Being.
