IGNITE a Healthy School Environment
Healthy Kids Challenge is SPARK's new and exclusive Healthy School Environment and Nutrition Services partner. Overcoming multiple challenges to a healthy school environment calls for a "Partners in Health" team effort: our HKC - SPARK IGNITE workshop!
Professional trainers from SPARK (a PE/PA expert) and HKC (a Registered Dietitian) team up to lead these workshops. We use formative assessment, training, and follow-up support to help create a healthy school environment.
In true HKC form, we use a HEAR-SEE-DO approach. In other words we don't just talk about the why and what, we show you HOW to take action.
Some topics include:
- Best practices for creating a healthy school environment
- Ways to utilize the environment to teach/reinforce health and wellness behaviors
- Skill building for making healthy choices a part of daily life
Tell me, does this sound like it will help meet your needs for a healthy school environment?
