Health Space

Health Pop Up appeared in Walton House on the last Monday of term and saw 150-200 students through the doors. Healthy snacks were on offer and lots of information about healthy eating along with other age-appropriate health information. 

The importance of eating breakfast and lunch was emphasised to students. The simple habit of eating breakfast and bringing a healthy lunch can make all the difference to a student’s ability to focus and concentrate during their school day.

A big thank you to Helen from Food Tech for all her help preparing our food giveaway. They were a big hit! Cucumber is a bit of a favourite 😉

Our next Health Pop Up is being planned for Term 3. Details to come…
