Health day

Giving young people the opportunity to develop their self esteem by understanding and creating a health day for the school. This will promote healthy living and eating and raise awareness of the dangers of not living an active lifestyle. The health day will offer learners the opportunity to experience activities and find one that interests them. This can be extended to a ‘get fit’ campaign of ‘take part fund raising activity.
