In the final lesson, the learners applied what they learned by calculating the cost and contents of healthy lunch boxes. This exercise helped them grasp practical aspects of meal planning, ensuring their choices were both nutritious and economical.

To cap off the theme, the Eco Club members created a vibrant poster showcasing everyoneโ€™s efforts and choices. This poster not only highlighted the students’ newfound knowledge but also served as a visual representation of their commitment to healthy eating.
