This year's Nutrition Month theme not only highlights the prevalence of undernourished children in the Philippines, it also centers on the importance of exercise or physical activity among today's generation. With the technology that keeps away children from outdoor activity like sports and other physical games, many children nowadays are becoming sickly.
To emphasize this year's Nutrition Month message, the Day Care Centers under Barangay Apopong which includes: Apopong A DCC (P.5 New Society), Apopong B DCC (Inside Barangay Hall Compound), Apopong B Annex DCC(P.3 Sto. Niño), Apopong C DCC (Purok 4 Lanton), Apopong 13 DCC (P.13 Lanton) and United Help Franconia DCC (Sogod), gathered together to celebrate the said activity last July 21, 2015 at the Barangay Gymnasium of Apopong.
Parents and Day Care Pupils prepared for the said occasion and joined Table Arrangement and Cooking Competition where they presented a nutritious, delicious and cheap dishes. Winning the Table Arrangement are the parents of Apopong C DCC while the parents from Apopong A DCC won the Cooking Competition.
As a proof that the Day Care Feeding program is effective, Day Care pupils from all centers showcased their talents through group presentations.
The government has proposed a total of P3.3 billion for the implementation of the Supplementary Feeding Program (SFP) next year to ensure that 2.5 million day care pupils nationwide are well-nourished as they attend school.-Manila BulletinThe Day Care Pupils also had fun with the parlor games prepared for them.
Gracing the event was First Lady Jane Rivera who ensures a support for Day Care Programs.
