To sensitise the students of class V, on the various physical, emotional, social and psychological changes in this transitional phase of growth and development, a session was taken by Dr.Sonia Mangla, medical officer cum counsellor of the school. The girls were briefed about the onset of the menstrual cycle and maintaining proper hygiene. The girls were guided on how to deal with these pubertal changes and overcome challenges, if any, in a more positive way.
