An educational visit by the students of 7i World School, Gwalior took place today, 28.11.2025 (Friday), at the Cancer Hospital and Research Institute (CHRI), Gwalior. A total of 60 students, aged 13 to 14 years, comprising both girls and boys, visited the hospital accompanied by four teaching faculty members.
During the visit, the students were escorted to various areas and departments of CHRI, where they were introduced to the hospital’s facilities, services, and functioning. They also attended an awareness session on essential life-saving skills, including Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), helping them understand the importance of emergency response and basic first aid.
As part of the educational engagement, the students participated in a mask-painting activity, where they used their creativity and imagination to paint Radiation Therapy (RT) patient masks on the theme “Love and Hope.” This activity aimed to inspire empathy, positivity, and awareness about the emotional journey of cancer patients.
The visit was further enriched by the friendly interaction of Dr. B. R. Shrivastava, Director, CHRI, who addressed the students on the causes of cancer and highlighted the significance of healthy lifestyle choices, early detection, and public awareness. His motivational talk encouraged the students to adopt good habits and contribute to spreading awareness within their communities.
