Outreach Activity/ Social Awareness Programme (Health Check-Up Camp) to Polgustia Board Primary School

The outreach activity aims to highlight that education and independent thought are the  most effective means of breaking down “narrow domestic walls”. In the light of this a health  check-up camp was organised by the Department of Chemistry, The Bhawanipur Education  Society College, Kolkata for all students of Polgustia Board Primary School, Polgustia, West  Bengal 711414 on 20.05.2022. For setting up the medical camp our department  collaborated with two Paediatricians (Dr. Argha Rajbanshi and Dr. Sabarna Sham). The two  said Doctors took part in this programme and emphasized to the parents of the students the necessity for their health and hygiene. The doctors also emphasized the need for taking  physical exercise daily. Also, the Doctors also focused on the need for keeping oneself clean  and on keeping hands cleaned and washed. Our college provided medicines as per  requirement for the school students. The College contributed stationery, sweets, fruits,  items for daily use for the students. Our college students and also the teachers and support  staff had the opportunity to interact with the school students for the entire day, which they  did with great zeal and enthusiasm. The students of the primary school presented a short  cultural programme which was a showcase of their individual talents. 

The college emphasizes that in creating awareness lies the true essence of education itself.  It was a proud moment for the students and teachers of the Department.
