Promoting a healthy lifestyle
BRAUER College was a hive of excitement earlier this week when more than 65 primary school children converged on the school for an afternoon of healthy learning.
As part of this week’s Neighbourhood House Week activities, students from years four to six at Warrnambool West Primary School enjoyed a health and well being program at the college.
The afternoon, titled ‘Healthy DAB (Day at Brauer) Day’ saw the senior students design, facilitate and mentor a program based on their currently learning unit.
Activities designed by the students, in conjunction with West Warrnambool Neighbourhood House, focussed on emotional, social, physical, cultural, economic and environmental aspects of health and well-being.
The activities included making traffic light sandwiches, fresh fruit kebabs and Neighbourhood House cookies.
They also enjoyed a range of arts and crafts including handmade badges with healthy messages, marine litter greeting cards and interactive healthy eating charts.
Hula hooping, juggling and a circuit challenge kept the students physically active.
