World No Tobacco Day is observed on 31st May each year, with the aim of spreading awareness about the harmful effects of using tobacco. The theme this year was, ‘Quit Tobacco to be a Winner’.
Students of Classes VII A and VII B participated enthusiastically by preparing posters with thought provoking slogans. These were displayed on the Class WhatsApp groups. Akshay Sehrawat of VII A and Paramjeet of VII B also spoke about the ill effects of tobacco use. They stressed on the fact that it is never too late to give up tobacco use if one wants to lead a healthy and productive life. Other students also took active part in the online classroom discussion on the disadvantages of using tobacco. At the end of the discussion, all the students took a pledge to say ’NO’ to tobacco and to encourage others also to do the same.
