⭐Congratulations to Irthlingborough Nursery and Infant School⭐

Their project focused on healthy eating and its link to oral health, helping children and families understand how positive food choices can support healthy teeth, overall wellbeing, and lifelong healthy habits. The project highlighted the importance of establishing these habits early in life to give children the best possible start.

A special shoutout to Rachel, whose hard work and commitment has guided the school on an incredible journey from Bronze to Silver and now Gold.

Huge congratulations to everyone at Irthlingborough Nursery and Infant School on this fantastic achievement. It has been a pleasure to support you throughout this process 💫

✨🌱 Congratulations to Little Stanion Primary School! 🌱✨

We are delighted to recognise Little Stanion Primary School on achieving their Healthy Schools Silver Award.

This achievement reflects the school's commitment to promoting healthy choices, environmental sustainability and positive wellbeing across the whole school community.

A particular highlight of the school's work has been its focus on reducing food waste and helping pupils understand the connection between sustainability, healthy lifestyles and wellbeing. Through the involvement of the School Council, Junior Leadership Team and Green Team Helpers, pupils have played an active role in promoting environmental responsibility and encouraging positive change across the school.

The school has successfully increased opportunities for pupils to engage with nature through the development of vegetable beds, sustainability projects, wellbeing activities and environmental awareness campaigns. These initiatives have helped pupils gain a greater understanding of where food comes from, the importance of reducing waste, and how caring for the environment can support both physical and mental wellbeing.

A special mention goes to Rhea, whose dedication and enthusiasm have been instrumental in leading this work and supporting the school to achieve such positive outcomes.

Congratulations to everyone at Little Stanion Primary School on this well-deserved achievement. We look forward to supporting the school as they continue their Healthy Schools journey.
