Significance of Polio Day
Polio Day at The Renaissance School served as a crucial reminder of the importance of vaccination in safeguarding children’s future health. It reinforced the need for continuous efforts to combat polio, ensuring that every child receives the necessary immunization. By promoting awareness among students, the campaign encouraged them to become advocates for polio prevention within their families and social circles.

Raising Awareness Beyond School
