The Healthy Schools spring network meeting on Tuesday 5 February will focus on introducing an Active Mile (e.g. The Daily Mile) into Haringey’s schools.
An Active Mile encourages children to jog, run or walk for 15 minutes. Evidence suggests that this has a positive impact on pupils’ concentration and attainment. The agenda for the network will include:
- speakers from Haringey schools which are already successfully implementing their own version of an Active Mile;
- information from the Active Lives Children and Young People survey;
- an update on the latest childhood obesity figures, and funding for schools to invest in health and wellbeing
- the opportunity to discuss ideas and tips with colleagues from across the borough
When: Tuesday 5 February 2019 2pm – 4pm
Where: Hornsey Health Centre, Hornsey, London N8 8JD
