Abstract

School going age is a dynamic period of growth and development as children undergo physical, social and rapid mental and emotional changes and nutrition is one of the major environmental factors responsible for these changes. The elementary school going period (10-12 years) is nutritionally significant because it is the prime time to build up stores of nutrients in preparation for the rapid growth during adolescence.
