Healthy Week for Year 7 students @ GSHS!

Year 7s will take part in a week of health-related quizzes and information sessions in tutor time that will focus on a range of health issues from skincare to stress levels. They will also be learning about the importance of starting the day with a healthy breakfast, and will have the chance to sample a few tasty breakfast ideas! There will be an extra-special assembly at the end of the week – Mr Jarvie will be promoting healthy lifestyles in a very unique way…

PE lessons will be even more diverse than usual, with coaches coming in to school to teach a range of exciting and fun sports and activities. More information about after-school classes will be coming soon!

Year 7s can visit the Taster Table in the dining hall on Tuesday lunchtime and sample some new healthy foods. Let the kitchen staff know which is your favourite and which dishes you would like to see added to a new school menu. Taste some unusual and exotic fruits and vegetables!

Teen LifeCheck is a fun and informative online survey from the NHS for 12-15 year olds. Look out for the link on your Desktop next week – take the survey and see how well-informed your life choices so far have been. Read advice and info on the Teen LifeCheck site about a whole range of health and self-esteem issues.

Being happy is a big part of being healthy, so most of all we hope you HAVE FUN in Healthy Week!!!
