SMP Edu Global School Medan recently partnered with RS Hermina to conduct an insightful health education session for its students. Held on Friday, October 25, 2024, the event featured Dr. Cyntia, a respected medical professional, who led the session with a focus on understanding puberty. This collaboration between the school and the hospital aimed to provide students with accurate and important information about their changing bodies, making it a significant part of the school’s health education initiative.
The theme of the session, “Puberty: Understanding Your Body Changing,” was carefully chosen to address the questions and concerns that many young people experience during this transitional phase of life. As students navigate the physical, emotional, and psychological changes associated with puberty, having access to proper guidance is essential for their well-being and self-awareness. Dr. Cyntia’s informative presentation was designed to create a supportive environment where students could feel comfortable asking questions and gaining a deeper understanding of their bodies.
Throughout the session, Dr. Cyntia explained the various stages of puberty, highlighting the physiological changes that occur in both boys and girls. She also emphasized the importance of mental health during this period and the significance of open communication with trusted adults, including parents and teachers. The session offered students a chance to learn about the biological processes behind puberty, as well as the emotional challenges they may face during this time of growth.
The event proved to be highly engaging, as students actively participated in discussions and asked questions that helped them process the information being shared. The interactive nature of the session ensured that each student left with a clearer understanding of what puberty entails, fostering a sense of confidence and empowerment as they navigate this important phase of their lives.
The collaboration between SMP Edu Global School Medan and RS Hermina marks a step forward in promoting health education among young people. By providing students with essential knowledge about puberty, the event helped to build a foundation for better health awareness and emotional intelligence. The school looks forward to continuing such partnerships to ensure students are equipped with the tools they need for a healthy and informed future.
