Nasha Mukti Bharat Pakhwada

Substance Abuse Awareness Workshop for Class XI

Blue Bells Group of Schools is dedicated to developing not only intellectual brilliance but also a sense of responsible citizenship. A thoughtful Substance Abuse Awareness Workshop for Class XI students was organized for Nasha Mukti Bharat Pakhwada, providing a strong platform for discussion, contemplation, and empowerment on August 29, 2025, in BBMS.

The session was conducted under the mentorship of Dr. Alka Saxena, Associate Director (Social & Emotional Learning), Blue Bells Group of Schools.  

The students were informed about the signs and symptoms of Substance Abuse. The session was designed to raise awareness regarding the ill effects of substance use and enhance students' skills to make sound, healthy choices. They were apprised of various types of substances, depressants, stimulants, hallucinogens, narcotics, and inhalants, and the ways they affect physical, emotional, and social health. Red eyes, change in mood, secrecy, and personality change were all explained at length as signs. Interactive exercises such as the Stress Coping Wheel and Match the Sign card game were an engaging and effective learning experience.

The reflective part motivated the students to identify positive coping mechanisms, including exercise, music, writing journals, and being mindful. Many students also gave positive feedback, appreciating the interactive format and sharing that the session made them reflect deeply on peer pressure and self-care. Ongoing monthly sessions will continue to be conducted on various topics to further raise awareness and promote informed, healthy choices among students.
