Encouraging Children to Keep Healthy

'Walking to School' week has been a great success, with the majority of children walking at least part of the way to school, and there has been a noticable benefit in the easing of congestion outside school. We would like this to continue into the future, together with promoting healthy eating for pupils.

The 'fruit and veg only' tuck at morning break has also been accepted by all the pupils and this policy will continue, particularly in view of recent media coverage encouraging children to eat more healthily following the increase in child obesity and resultant health problems.

We are grateful for your support and co-operation in encouraging your children to continue to walk to school and to only bring fruit and vegetables for tuck.
