Shantiniketan Indian School observed World Hypertension Day on 17th May with a meaningful awareness program organized by the Scouts and Guides. The event aimed to educate students about hypertension and inspire healthy lifestyle habits through engaging and interactive activities.
The program featured an informative skit, thought-provoking speeches, and presentations emphasizing the importance of regular blood pressure monitoring, stress management, healthy eating, and physical fitness. Students enthusiastically participated in breathing exercises, fitness challenges, and a creative poster-making competition that highlighted ways to maintain cardiovascular health.
A proud moment of the event was the badge presentation ceremony conducted by Scouts Association consultants Mr. Ahmed Khamis and Mr. Paramjeet Bullar. The students honoured were Aditya Chaudhary (Scout Leader), Astle Dsouza (Assistant Leader), David Ed (Scout Captain), and Mohammed Shafath Khan (Scout Captain).
The Principal and school heads appreciated the efforts of the Scouts and Guides along with their leaders, Mr. Wasiullah and Mrs. Carol, for organizing such an impactful initiative and encouraged students to lead healthy, balanced, and stress-free lives.
