Healthy Schools

Information For Parents

Here are some tools that you can use to learn more about what makes a school healthy and do your part to make your school even healthier.

We're also interested in your great ideas. Use our feedback form to tell us what your school is doing.

Parents

You have the primary responsibility for shaping your children's attitudes and behaviours about physical activity and healthy living. You can model and encourage healthy behaviours at home by being role models and leading an active and healthy lifestyle.

Tips for parents:

• Talk about healthy schools activities with your child, your child's teacher and principal.
• Support and be actively involved with the healthy schools activities at your child’s school.
• Participate in healthy activities at home as a family.
