National Nutrition Week – Science Club Exhibition⚛🧬
Parle Tilak Vidyalaya English Medium School celebrated National Nutrition Week through a two-day exhibition organised by the Science Club – Eureka, in collaboration with the Nature Club, Consumer Club and Enrich – Literary Club. The exhibition focused on nutrition, food safety, hygiene, consumer awareness and healthy food choices for students of Standards V to IX.
The exhibition was inaugurated by Headmistress Mrs. Smita Biwalkar. Mrs. Janhavi Khandekar, Chief Academic and Administrative Officer, also visited the exhibition and interacted with students as they enthusiastically explained their exhibits.
A guest lecture on ‘Nutrition for Growing Students’ was conducted for Std. VII by Mrs. Poulomi Oke, Sports Nutritionist and Yoga Instructor. The session was followed by a Science Quiz on nutrition and hygiene, encouraging students to apply their knowledge beyond the classroom.
One of the highlights was ‘Flavour Alchemist’, a healthy culinary competition for Std. VIII. Sixteen groups participated and prepared nutritious and tasty dishes while maintaining proper hygiene. The activity helped students understand that healthy food choices and good hygiene go hand in hand.
The exhibition also featured a slogan competition for Std. IX and a poster-making activity by the Enrich – Literary Club on healthy diet, hygiene and food awareness. The Consumer Club presented ‘Jago Grahak Jago’, creating awareness about reading food labels and food adulteration. The Nature Club organised ‘Raan Bhaji’ for Std. VII, where students explored local and seasonal vegetables, their nutritional value and traditional uses.
A positive change was also introduced in the school canteen, where healthier options such as idli, upma and pohe replaced vada pav. Continuous awareness helped students understand and accept the importance of nutritious food.
Students of Standards V and VI also visited the exhibition and learnt about healthy eating, hygiene and food safety through the various displays and activities.
The two-day exhibition provided students with meaningful, hands-on learning and brought together science, nutrition, creativity, hygiene and sustainability. The enthusiastic participation of the students made the initiative a successful step towards nurturing healthy and responsible young citizens.
We extend our thanks to the teacher-advisors and students of the Science Club – Eureka, Nature Club, Consumer Club and Enrich – Literary Club, along with Mrs. Poulomi Oke, judges, teachers and staff members, for their valuable contribution to the success of the exhibition.
