A Session on “Health & Hygiene” was conducted for the Girls of Std 5th to 7th. The resource person was Ms. Neha Jasani from Whisper Company. The Workshop was organised to encourage young teenage girls to adopt simple healthy habits that can prevent illnesses such as washing hands five times a day, using a toilet for defecation and adopting safe drinking water practices and to use sanitary pads during menstruation. Personal hygiene is important for many reasons, for instance, to have a better personality, a good health, for social reasons and for psychological issues.
It was an interactive session in which the students spontaneously took part. The girls asked the doctor questions regarding their various health problems. Sanitary Pads were distributed as a part of the awareness campaign!
