Revitalizing the School Health Business (UKS) or reactivating UKS activities to improve the
health status of Elementary School (SD) students with personal hygiene and balanced nutrition
education is one of the objectives of the healthy school program. Children at the elementary
school level are one of the targets of the UKS, because their bodies are vulnerable to disease.
In addition, they are in a growth and development phase, have a lot of physical activity, and
play outside the home, so they need good knowledge about personal hygiene and balanced
nutrition. The purpose of the service is to increase students' knowledge about personal hygiene
and balanced nutrition. The service is carried out for fourth grade students using the small
group method where one group consists of five people. Media in the form of laptops, dinner
plates, cut pictures of staple foods, side dishes, fruits and vegetables. The activity was carried out in May 2023, at the Annur Islamic Fullday Elementary School with 30 participants. The
method of measuring the level of knowledge before and after education is through a
questionnaire. The results obtained were that before education most of the students' knowledge
of personal hygiene and balanced nutrition was in the less category, increasing to a good
category after education. Monitoring and evaluation via WhatsApp group for class teachers
and student guardians through the school committee. The results showed that most of the
students had realized the importance of personal hygiene, had washed their hands and brushed
their teeth regularly, and had eaten a balanced diet. Suggestions for educational schools on
personal hygiene and balanced nutrition in the context of implementing UKS revitalization can
be an alternative method of health education in increasing knowledge and changing personal
hygiene behavior and consuming balanced nutrition
