To make the children aware about the benefits of healthy food, a workshop on the importance of balanced diet was organized in Ryan International School, Mohali. Students of classes III – V participated in the workshop. The resource person Dr. Pratibha who is currently working as a dietician in the Indus Hospital explained about the benefits of a balanced diet and the importance of vitamins.
A power point presentation was shown to students for a lasting impact. She also laid stress on the benefits of physical activity which is equally important. She urged the children to eat from a ‘rainbow’ plate wherein they have fruits and vegetables of different colours. The workshop ended with a question answer session. Overall the workshop proved to be very fruitful for the students as well as the teachers.
