World Food Safety Day- June 7

Good morning, respected Principal, teachers, and my dear friends.

Today, we gather to observe World Food Safety Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of food safety and its impact on our health and well-being.

Food is a fundamental part of our lives, providing the nourishment and energy we need to grow, learn, and thrive. However, the safety of the food we consume is often taken for granted. Contaminated food can lead to severe health issues, including foodborne illnesses that can affect anyone, especially vulnerable populations like children, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems.

World Food Safety Day, celebrated annually on June 7th, was established by the United Nations to draw attention to the critical role that food safety plays in ensuring access to safe, nutritious, and sufficient food for all.

There are a few simple yet effective practices we can all follow to ensure food safety:

Cleanliness: Always wash your hands, utensils, and surfaces before and after handling food to prevent contamination.
Separate: Keep raw and cooked foods separate to avoid cross-contamination. Use different cutting boards for meats and vegetables.
Cook: Ensure that food is cooked to the right temperature to kill harmful bacteria. Use a food thermometer to check if necessary.
Chill: Refrigerate perishable foods promptly to slow down the growth of bacteria. Do not leave food out for more than two hours.

By following these practices, we contribute to a safer food environment in our homes and communities. Additionally, it is essential to support and comply with food safety standards and regulations set by health authorities and organisations.

As students, we also have a role to play in advocating for food safety. We can start by educating ourselves and others about the importance of safe food-handling practices. Sharing this knowledge with our families and communities can make a significant difference.

Let us take this opportunity to commit ourselves to food safety, ensuring that the food we eat is safe, healthy, and nourishing. Together, we can contribute to a healthier future for everyone.

Thank you for your attention, and let’s work together to promote food safety every day. Wishing you all a safe and healthy day ahead!
