Poshan Pakhwada 2025 – “Nourishing India’s Future”
Prime Minister’s Scheme of Holistic Nourishment

Endorsing the Poshan Abhiyan, a flagship initiative by the Government of India aimed at raising awareness about the importance of nutrition and promoting overall health and well-being, D.A.V. Public School, Sector-37, Faridabad observed Poshan Pakhwada 2025 with great enthusiasm.

Under the able leadership of the visionary Principal Ms. Deepti Jagota, the school organized a series of engaging and educational activities from Nursery to Class XII, reinforcing the message of healthy eating and balanced living.

Nursery to Class V celebrated Nutritious Lunch Week, integrating fun with food education:

• Nursery to Class II enjoyed Morning Fruit Time, relishing seasonal fruits while learning about their health benefits.
• Class III participated in a Salads and Sprouts activity, preparing fibre- and protein-rich snacks.
• Class IV explored culinary diversity in Delicacies of Different States, learning about regional food practices.
• Class V showcased creativity in Healthy No-Flame Snacks, promoting nutritious and safe eating habits.

The students of Classes III to V  were also engaged in Self-Care Activities. These highlighted how a nutritious diet supports mental health, memory, and focus. A session on Healthy and Mindful Eating reinforced habits such as eating slowly, recognizing hunger cues, starting the day with a healthy breakfast, and avoiding screens during meals.

Classes VI to VIII were encouraged to bring nutritious tiffins throughout the week. To further raise awareness about the impact of food choices, they played themed games like Snakes and Ladders, which illustrated the contrasting effects of junk food and healthy eating on the body.

Classes XI and XII students gained hands-on experience by preparing nutritious snacks, applying their knowledge of balanced diets to real-life practices.

The initiative proved to be a grand success, creating a positive and lasting impact on students across all age groups. By combining fun, creativity, and learning, the school contributed meaningfully to building a healthier future for the nation.

Together, we nourished not just bodies—but the future of India.
