Engaged over 6,300 primary school students from 30 schools across Selangor, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya through a combination of nutrition education, individual art competition and team mural competition.<\/p>\n
Selangor, KL, Putrajaya, December 1, 2025 \u2013 Proper nutrition plays a vital role in a child\u2019s physical and cognitive development. Nutritious meals strengthen the body, sharpen focus, and sustain energy, forming the foundation for confident learning and creativity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Art, on the other hand, nurtures imagination, empathy, and emotional expression to help children turn knowledge into self-discovery.<\/p>\n
By connecting these two essential elements, \u2018Makan Bijak Bersama Ayam Brand\u2122 2025\u2019 shows how a healthy diet fuels creative potential, empowering children to think, imagine, and create beyond the classroom.<\/p>\n
\u201cChildren are naturally imaginative. When we combine good nutrition with art, we help them see that healthy living isn\u2019t just a routine, it\u2019s an act of creativity, confidence, and self-expression,\u201d said Teoh Wei Ling, Head of Marketing, A. Clouet (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. (Ayam Brand\u2122).<\/p>\n

The initiative was guided by two shared objectives.\u00a0 For schools, it served as a platform to encourage students to adopt healthy lifestyle habits through experiential learning that blends nutrition and creativity; while for Ayam Brand\u2122, it reflected the brand\u2019s long-standing mission to promote nutritious, natural, and preservative-free meals that bring families and communities together.<\/p>\n
The prize giving ceremonies, held from 24 to 26 November 2025 at the respective winning schools and attended by representatives from the State Education Departments to celebrate students\u2019 creativity, teamwork and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n
