On 16 October, under the Science Outreach Programme and health awareness programme that HIMWATS runs, the society held an experience-based children’s science workshop at Government Inter College Palso, with the support of UCOST. It ran a free medical and health check-up camp at the school on the same day.

At the camp, 121 students, teachers and parents had their eyes examined. Thirteen students were found to have a vision defect.
