Wixams youngsters get into the spirit for Healthy Lifestyles Week

The school recently held its third annual ‘Healthy Lifestyles Week’, and children had the opportunity to learn about what constitutes a healthy lifestyle.

The week had a strong focus on physical health with children able to try out activities such as rugby, tennis and karate.

It was also a fantastic opportunity for the children to learn about mental wellbeing through activities such as yoga.

Other year groups 
also learnt about diet and some of the older children 
participated in a drug and alcohol awareness session, learning how to become 
responsible with their bodies.

Head teacher Anita Evans said: “This was a week of great fun but with a really important message for life. Healthy living is extremely important for everyone and it is even 
better if children can learn about the benefits early and have a good time doing it.”
