Healthy Schools

Greenleas was the first local school to obtain this award.

It is a National Standard which sets out guidelines to encourage an improvement in children’s health & achievement.

Holders of the award have to demonstrate a commitment to promoting good health and citizenship and the positive benefits this brings.

Initiatives at Greenleas include:

Healthy snacks at playtime rather than sweets / biscuits
Personal water bottles to encourage children to drink more fluids
Walk to School days
Fruit Days where each class takes turns to bring fruit to school for everyone to share
Fruit for all in Key Stage 1 and Early Years children - every day
Healthy Schools Week - a programme of events for all the family.
