Muscat: Indian School Bausher organised yet another amusing event with an objective of ‘Care for Health and Nutritive Food’, on 14th June 2022 coninciding with ‘World Food Day’.
To enlighten the students, the Science department of the school conducted a ‘salad-making’ competition for Grade 3 to 7 and ‘poster making’ competition for Grade 8 to 11. The Grade 1 and 2 students made fruit salad. The objective of this activity was to inculcate healthy eating habits and to imbibe a life skill to the little stars of ISB.
The theme of poster making was to ‘avoid the wastage of food’. The students displayed various types of vegetable and fruit salads such as watermelon basket salad, combo salad, jumbo salad and many more ingenious salads using commonly available ingredients. The participants explained the specialty of their salad and also the importance of including salad in the regular diet for maintaining good health and keeping diseases at bay.
The participants’ creativity, cleanliness, safety, taste, and presentation were the basic criterion for the judgment. Judges exhorted the students to make salad eating a routine habit for enabling them to maintain a healthy life.
The objective behind the ‘poster-making’ competition was to discover the fervor of imagination and creativity in the students along with understanding the need of the hour ie save food by not wasting it. The whole world is struggling to maintain the standard storage of food for all.
The young students from all the four houses displayed their artistic skills through an array of posters with immense zeal and enthusiasm. It was a great opportunity to witness young creative minds displaying their ideas on paper and the events were overwhelmingly enjoyed by the students.
The Science Department successfully achieved the objective by sowing the seed of understanding among students about the ‘nutritive value of food’ and the importance of zero wastage of food.
