Bhavan Vidyalaya New Chandigarh observes World Arthritis Day
New Chandigarh, October 12 –
Bhavan Vidyalaya New Chandigarh celebrated World Arthritis Day on 12 October
2023 to promote fitness and awareness of how important self-care is to stay healthy
and disease-free. Keen to educate the community about arthritis and the
importance of self-care, the school conducted a variety of events.
The students of classes 3 and 4 participated in a Yoga Session hosted by the Sports
department. They started with warmup exercises, progressing to Surya Namaskar
and deep breathing. The children thoroughly enjoyed this activity. At the end, they
made a human chain to show solidarity in the prevention of Arthritis.
Students of classes 5 and 6 prepared wristbands with a message to spread the
theme of this year’s World Arthritis Day – ‘It’s in your hands, take action’. These
bracelets served as a reminder of the proactive role we can all play in the fight
against arthritis. Meanwhile, students from grades 7 and 8 engaged in poster-
making activities with the same theme. The posters were a creative way to spread
awareness about the disease and encourage people to take action to prevent it.
The school principal, Ms. Inderpreet Kaur, encouraged the students to lead a
healthy lifestyle and appreciated the students’ enthusiastic participation in various
activities.
