Children Enjoy Communal Meals Through Feeding Program

The school feeding program not only provides essential nutrition but also creates meaningful social experiences as children gather to share meals together. These communal meal times have become important moments of connection and community building.

Communal meal benefits include:

  • Improved nutrition for all participating children
  • Social skills development through shared meals
  • Sense of belonging and community
  • Teaching table manners and social etiquette
  • Opportunities for peer interaction and friendship
  • Reduced stigma around receiving assistance

"The children love eating together," said teacher Sister Ruth. "It's not just about the food - it's about coming together as a community."

These shared experiences contribute to the holistic development of children, addressing both physical and social needs.
