Healthy lifestyles means making positive changes to boost your child’s physical, mental and social health and wellbeing. 

For children this means eating a balanced diet, 60 minutes of exercise a day, spending time having fun with family and friends, getting enough sleep, good personal hygiene and attending health appointments. 

NHS Choices say that Children who are a healthy weight are more likely to be fitter, healthier, better able to learn, more self-confident and less likely to have health problems later in life. 

If you feel your child needs some extra support with healthy lifestyles, please complete and return a referral to the School health team.

Change4Life and NHS Choices have lots of useful tips and information to keep healthy.
