Healthy Schools
St. Teresa’s is a registered Healthy School. We achieved the London Healthy Schools Gold Award in 2022. By taking part in this programme, we have seen the following outcomes among many others:
- Increased number of opportunities that children have to be physically active in and out of school.
- Increased participation of children in physical activity in and out of school.
- Improved links between our school and external organisations that promote physical activity.
Improved access to healthy packed lunches and snacks throughout the school day.
