Abstract: Food and water borne diseases are the significant health risk in the developing countries as well as in the 3 rd world especially among poor rural communities and the most vulnerable group age groups – the young and the old .Food and water borne diseases are largely caused by micro organisms present in human or animal waste (feces) finding their way in to humans via the mouth (orally).This may happen through drinking or using contaminated water supply (water borne diseases),but more often fecal oral diseases are spread through other routes such as via hands,clothes,food or materials used for cooking ,eating or drinking. These disease are infections, which means that they can spread from one person to another. High standards of hygiene and sanitation are needed to stop the spreading of disease. There is a saying that, infectious disease will last as long as humanity exists .Objectives -1.To determine the post-test knowledge of students regarding food and waterborne diseases and their prevention. 2. To associate the pre-test knowledge score of students regarding food and waterborne diseases their prevention with their selected demographic variables. MATERIALS AND METHODS-Health Belief Model is applied in this study. An evaluative research approach & Pre-experimental, one-group pre-test –post-test design with 120 school children drawn from stratified random sampling was used to identify the effectiveness of the structured teaching program on food and waterborne diseases, and their prevention for the study. RESULT There was highly significant difference (t119=59.72,P<0.05) between mean pre-test and mean post-test knowledge score. There was significant association between the gain in knowledge score and selected variables like age (x2 =9.79,P<0.05), class(x2=14.729,P<0,05). CONCLUSION-Food and water borne diseases in India are very common and spread from one to another. Adequate water treatment, waste disposal and protection of food supply from contamination are important public health measures.
