Eating fruits nourishes our bodies and keeps us fit and healthy. To encourage the consumption of fruits in our regular diet, the twinkling stars of Carmel English Medium Higher Primary School, Kotekar celebrated Fruit Day on November 9, 2023.
It was a pleasant sight to see the children entering their classrooms carrying one or two fruits of their choice to learn more about them and participate in a fruit salad making activity. The children also drew pictures of their favorite fruits as part of a classroom activity.
This was an opportunity to teach the children about the health benefits of different fruits. The tiny tots spoke about their favorite fruits and why they liked them.
Sr. Jecintha Desa A C, our school principal, gave a message to the children about the importance of different fruits and asked them some questions, which they answered happily. Sr. Fidele A C, our coordinator, thanked all the students and teachers for celebrating the day joyfully.
Finally, the teachers prepared a fruit salad and every child enjoyed it to the fullest. The day was indeed very fruitful.
