Poshan Pakhwada - 8th April – 22nd April 2025
As part of the nationwide Poshan Pakhwada 2025 celebration, Rajhans Vidyalaya actively participated in spreading awareness about nutrition, health, and wellness. The initiative, launched by the Ministry of Women and Child Development under Mission Poshan 2.0, emphasized the importance of the first 1,000 days of life—from conception to the age of two—as a crucial window for ensuring long-term health and development. Our school organized a series of four impactful activities across various grades to promote these goals.
1. Special Assembly on Nutrition Awareness (22nd April 2025)
A special assembly was conducted to highlight the objectives of Poshan Pakhwada. Students from Grades V to X delivered speeches and shared facts about the significance of proper nutrition, especially during early childhood. The assembly underlined the need for balanced diets and healthy lifestyle habits and concluded with a pledge by students to make informed food choices and encourage the same in their homes and communities.
2. ‘Eat Right Quiz on Obesity’ Participation
Students from grades V to X were invited to participate in the ‘Eat Right Quiz on Obesity’, hosted on the MyGov platform. Open to all age groups, this interactive quiz tested students’ knowledge of obesity, its causes, and preventive strategies. Certificates were awarded to all participants, which were then submitted to class teachers. This activity aimed at enhancing awareness about nutrition-related health issues in a fun and engaging way.
3. Sprouts Salad Making Activity – Grade VI (22nd April 2025)
To promote practical learning, Grade VI students took part in a Sprouts Salad Making Activity. They brought pre-sprouted beans and fresh ingredients from home and prepared a healthy salad in class. The activity taught them the value of protein-rich foods, hygiene, and the importance of including wholesome items in daily meals. It was both educational and enjoyable, fostering healthy food habits through hands-on experience.
4. Awareness Through Educational Videos – Grade VII
To reinforce the importance of nutrition and a healthy lifestyle, curated videos related to nutrition, balanced diets, and the ill effects of junk food were screened for Grade VII students. The audiovisual content helped simplify complex nutritional concepts and sparked discussions on making better food choices. The video screenings effectively connected theoretical knowledge with real-life applications, leaving a lasting impact on students.
Rajhans Vidyalaya’s multi-grade approach to Poshan Pakhwada 2025 brought together awareness, education, and practical experience. The integrated activities across classes not only aligned with the goals of Mission Poshan 2.0 but also empowered students to become ambassadors of health in their families and communities.
