Abstract

An evaluation study of primary school pupils involved in health activities was carried out. The study showed that pupils can be used effectively as agents for transmitting health information.

Through a well designed school health program the use of primary school pupils will help improve deficiencies in the quantitiy and quality of existing public health education activities.
