We at DPS Chandigarh encourage the children to eat healthy and nutritious food and aptly enough the topic for Class I ELS was ‘The Greatest Wealth is Health’. The children were sensitized about the fact that no single food contains all the nutrients that our body needs therefore eating well means eating a variety of foods. They were also made aware of the food pyramid and the benefits of carbohydrates, proteins and vitamins.
