Abstract

The nutritional status of elementary school children serves as a vital indicator of their overall growth, development, and future health outcomes. Poor nutritional status, whether in the form of undernutrition or overweight, can lead to a range of health and academic performance issues. This study aimed to assess the nutritional status of Grade 4A students at SD 064981 Cempaka Raya using anthropometric measurements and to examine the association between snacking habits and nutritional categories. A descriptive quantitative research design was employed, utilizing a total sampling approach involving all 20 students in the class. Data collection consisted of direct height and weight measurements conducted according to standardized procedures. The data were then analyzed using the WHO Anthro Plus software to classify nutritional status into undernourished, normal, overweight, and obese categories. Additionally, information on students’ snacking habits during school hours was obtained through structured questionnaires. The results indicated that 25% of students were undernourished, 50% had normal nutritional status, 20% were overweight, and 5% were obese. Bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test demonstrated a statistically significant relationship (p < 0.001) between snacking behavior and nutritional status. Specifically, all students who reported frequent consumption of snacks at school were classified as overweight or obese, whereas those who did not engage in frequent snacking predominantly fell within the undernourished or normal categories. These findings highlight the potential role of unhealthy snacking patterns in contributing to excessive weight gain among school-age children. Based on the results, it is recommended that nutrition education programs be implemented for both students and parents, coupled with stricter regulations on the availability and sale of high-calorie snack foods within the school environment. Such measures may serve as preventive strategies to promote healthy growth, maintain optimal nutritional status, and reduce the risk of non-communicable diseases later in life.

Abstract

The nutritional status of primary school-aged children is an important indicator for monitoring their growth and development. This study aims to describe the nutritional status of the 4A grade students at SD 064981 Cempaka Raya based on anthropometric data and analyze the relationship between their consumption of school snacks and their nutritional status categories. The research method used is quantitative descriptive with total sampling of 20 students. Data was collected through measurements of height and weight, which were then processed using the WHO Anthro Plus software to determine the students' nutritional status categories. The measurement results show that 25% of the students are categorized as undernourished, 50% are within normal nutritional status, 20% are overweight, and 5% are obese. Bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test revealed a highly significant relationship (p<0.001) between snack consumption patterns at school and nutritional status. The results show that all students who have the habit of consuming snacks are more likely to be categorized as overweight or obese, while students who do not consume snacks tend to be in the undernourished or normal category. These findings indicate that snack consumption patterns can be a risk factor for excess nutrition in children. Therefore, it is crucial to educate students about the importance of balanced and healthy eating habits from an early age. Monitoring snack consumption at school is also necessary to minimize the risk of obesity and excess nutrition in children. Preventive measures like these are expected to prevent health issues related to nutrition and promote healthy and optimal growth in children. By encouraging good eating habits, we can help create a healthier generation and reduce the risk of nutrition-related diseases.
