CORNITOS HEALTHY SNACKs AWARENESS CAMPAIGN 

    CORNITOS HEALTHY SNACKS AWARENESS CAMPAIGN   23/04/2018   "Healthy munching is important to maintain a Healthy Lifestyle"   Although meals make up the majority of our nutritional intake, yet most of us eat at least one snack per day. Children love to eat snacks so it becomes our responsibility to take care of the quality and quantity of the snack that a child takes. Mouthwatering snacks often translate into piling up a lot of kilos, with obesity being just one of the many repercussions.   In order to demystify myths about snacks and develop understanding for Healthy Snacks among students, Snacking Awareness Campaign was organized by Special Cornitos Team for Students of Class IV and V in Blue Bells Model School.   In an interactive way, Nutrition related information was provided to the students assembled in the J.D. hall. The interactive session was followed by Query Handling Session to know whether students have understood the agenda of this Campaign. Students were also called upon the stage for a game.   The session left a constructive impact on students. It spread the awareness about healthy snacks and the options that are available for them in the market. Principal Ms. Chandan Dhawan and Primary Wing In-charge Madam Meenakshi Malhotra thanked the Cornitos Team and expressed their gratitude towards the Team for conducting such productive and effective Campaign.

The students were awestruck by seeing how a glass tube could be easily blown up to form a bubble of glass, the magic water, experiment based on liquid nitrogen ,natrium flower golden rain ,experiments based on super magnets ,the technology of hologram etc, it was all just amazing. Then we went to the Robotics club of IIT-D students, the pieces of technology showcased by them was all the more fascinating.

We also attended a seminar by Prof. Subrat Kaur on how to proceed in life with full focus and passion. The students then all enthusiastically proceeded towards the Lecture Hall Complex to see the great exhibits displayed by the students of

IIT-D. The exhibits were examples of how judiciously can technology be created and developed by humans for their own use.

All the students visited the various departments; be it the textile department or the computer science department, each one of them had its own way of beautifying the mere significance of the fact that we were present in one of the greatest institutes of India – IIT-D. Overall, the whole day opened up before us like an interesting book of information for our minds to grab.

At the end of the day, the students boarded the school bus and headed back towards the school with each head filled out with a different thought, a thought of hope, motivation and determination.
