Nutrition week Islamic Moral Foundation School Akwanga
During the School Nutrition Week, we had the opportunity to engage parents on the importance of child nutrition and its direct impact on cognitive development, academic performance, and overall wellbeing.
As an institution, we are not only committed to imparting knowledge, but we are also intentional about addressing the key factors that support effective learning. Proper nutrition is one of the most critical foundations for a child’s growth, concentration, and brain development.
During the session, parents were trained on how to prepare affordable and highly nutritious meals using locally available ingredients. We also guided them on how to develop a simple and practical food timetable to ensure consistency in their children’s daily dietary intake.
To support implementation at home, we distributed Tom Brown (a rich, fortified cereal blend) to parents free of charge. This is part of our commitment to promoting healthy feeding practices and combating malnutrition among children in our community.
Our goal remains to strengthen parental awareness, encourage healthy habits, and ensure that every child has the nutritional support they need to learn, grow, and thrive.
