An Awareness Talk on Menstrual Health and Hygiene was conducted on 11th September 2026 for the girls of Grades 8 to 10 from both the SSC and ICSE sections of CJM High School. The session was organised in collaboration with Apollo Hospital with the aim of creating awareness and promoting healthy menstrual practices among adolescent girls.
The session provided students with age-appropriate and valuable information about the menstrual cycle, menstrual hygiene, common menstrual concerns, and healthy practices. The resource person Dr.Rohini Khera Bhatt explained the changes that occur during adolescence and encouraged students to maintain proper personal hygiene and adopt healthy habits during menstruation.
The interactive session also gave students an opportunity to clarify their doubts and concerns in a comfortable and supportive environment. Emphasis was placed on understanding menstruation as a natural and healthy biological process and on breaking hesitation and misconceptions surrounding menstrual health.
The talk was informative and beneficial, helping students become more aware, confident and responsible about their menstrual health and well-being. The school expressed its gratitude to Apollo Hospital for conducting this meaningful awareness session and contributing towards the health and holistic development of our students.
