PROMOTING HEALTHIER CELEBRATIONS AT SCHOOL: AN ALTERNATIVE TO CHOCOLATES AND LOLLIES

As we continue our commitment to creating a safe and healthy learning environment for our students, we would like to address an important matter regarding birthday celebrations at our school.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we discouraged families from bringing cakes to school and encouraged pre-packaged foods as a precautionary measure to reduce potential health risks. While we appreciate your cooperation during this challenging time, we want to continue promoting a culture of health and wellness at our school even as the pandemic recedes.

As you may be aware, our school is a proud participant in the "Move Well Eat Well" program, which aims to instil positive habits in our students when it comes to nutrition and physical activity. With this in mind, we kindly ask for your support in discouraging the tradition of bringing chocolates and lollies to school on your child's birthday.

Instead, we encourage you to consider alternative ways of celebrating your child's special day. There are various creative and healthier options available that can make birthdays memorable without the need for sugary treats.

We understand that birthdays are special occasions, and we want to ensure that they are celebrated in a way that aligns with our commitment to a healthy lifestyle.
