The success of health week activity and enjoyment are so evident in the children. It had a
great impact on children’s food and hygiene habit.
AWARENESS TALK-PUBERTY-“MY CHANGING BODY”
DATE:-15.4.19
GRADE:-V
Dr.Jeena (School Doctor) conducted an awareness talk creating awareness about
Menstruation, Puberty and Safety for the children of Grade 5.
The topics discussed were the 3 major growth spurts, understanding changes in each stage
and health and care advice. Other points of discussion were, accepting and identifying the
feelings one experiences during these growth spurts, brain development, and the
importance of making responsible choices at all times. The interactive session by the
Doctor was informative and beneficial as it explained a sensitive topic that is often
considered difficult for parents to address with children. Rather than having
misconceptions grow .The talk helped students ask questions, clarify doubts or understand
a concern/fear. The presentation was followed by an individual Q&A, open to every
student.
