Healthy Schools

Our cen­tre is part of a National ini­tia­tive to pro­mote Healthy Schools

A healthy learn­ing organ­i­sa­tion is an effec­tive learn­ing com­mu­nity, which sup­ports learn­ers in achiev­ing their poten­tial aca­d­e­m­i­cally, per­son­ally and socially.

We aim to pro­vide an envi­ron­ment and expe­ri­ence of school life, which pro­motes the phys­i­cal, men­tal, emo­tional and social health of all who learn.

Our healthy eat­ing policy

Sweets or fizzy drinks are dis­cour­aged in the nurs­ery. Par­ents are asked not to send these items into nurs­ery even in lunch boxes (full time children).

We encour­age the chil­dren daily to ·

• Drink milk (if allowed)
• Eat a piece of fruit or vegetable

Par­ents are asked to send at least one piece of fruit or a veg­etable each week to con­tribute to the above.

Birth­days are an impor­tant event. Par­ents are wel­come to send a sim­ple cake, which can be shared with friends.

A cook­ing activ­ity nor­mally takes place each week. Again staff will always aim to use healthy ingre­di­ents and stress the impor­tance of hygiene at all times.
