Healthy School Award 2007

You may be aware that our school has been working to achieve Healthy School status.

To do this, there were four key areas that we have been addressing throughout the year:

- Personal, Social and Health Education
- Healthy Eating
- Physical Activity
- Emotional health and wellbeing

We are very pleased to say that we have achieved these four objectives and we have now been officially awarded Healthy School status!

We have worked hard to make sure children at Our Lady of Mount Carmel benefit from a more healthy and balanced diet.

We have discouraged children from bringing in unhealthy snacks at break time.

We have a fantastic healthy tuck shop in school, which is now offering more choice then ever and all for just 10p.

At Our Lady of Mount Carmel we believe that a healthy diet is essential for maintaining and protecting our children's health.

This will ensure that they perform to their full potential during the school day (both academically and physically) and for their growth and development.

Our aim is to help them establish a healthy lifestyle that we hope will continue into adulthood.


Thank you for your anticipated support. Together we can ensure our children establish a healthy lifestyle that will continue into adulthood.
