GIS Discovers Fitness with Mr. Zinan: Health & Fitness Programme
In the month of February, GIS started an awareness programme, educating the students on health and fitness under the theme 'A Fit Body Means a Fit Mind'. This theme is also incorporated in different subjects taught in different grades. The programme is conducted by Mr. Hussain Zinan, the CEO & Head Trainer of Total Fitness Group Pvt. Ltd. who is also the Head Lecturer of International Personal Trainers & Fitness Academy.
Mr. Zinan started the programme with the Grade threes. On a scheduled table, classes were given sessions on how to become healthy and be fit at the same time. He also imparted knowledge on the 'Activity Pyramid' which gave a clear picture on the types of exercises and activities that can lead to physical fitness of the brain which ultimately would contribute to memory retention and long-term benefits to the brain.
Today the last class of the Junior Section completed the Health & Fitness session or putting in Mr. Zinan's words, they 'discovered fitness'.
The programme will be continued after the term mid break starting with the sixth graders till he covers the Senior Section.
