The Healthy Living Program

What’s it all about?

The healthy living program is a direct response to reports that children and young people lack health, fitness and nutrition education, and that childhood obesity is constantly on the rise.

Not to single out students who are deemed unhealthy or overweight but to educate all young people in a fun, hands on, active style and address poor engrained habits and replace them with new ones that participants may be able to pass on to family, friends and hopefully other generations.

"33% of year 6 pupils are obese or

overweight" (TES 2012)


This is a program that can be used as an extension to lessons, as a support to specific subjects, inclusion support, during school hours, after school, breakfast clubs, respite and alternative education. The healthy living program can be aimed at particular groups of varied abilities who show interest in the subject, are in need of extra curricular work or looking into a related career. It is hoped that those who excel in the course can also become ambassadors or mentors for younger attendees who take part in continued or up and coming programs.


“me and my friends learnt about different ways we can exercise” year 8 student

"Childhood obesity has more than tripled in the past 30 years. New research suggests that obese children and adolescents have several risk factors for heart disease, including raised blood pressure and cholesterol. Obesity experts say parents are struggling with …a lack of education about food, limited cooking skills and limited money to buy healthier food to longer working hours and marketing campaigns for junk food aimed at kids" (BBC News September 2012)


The program aims to encourage responsibility for participant's own health and nutrition, prevent obesity and promote healthy living.

It is hoped they will use the knowledge gained towards other subjects, into their homes and everyday life to value their own health and those around them.
