Health Education

As part of the roll-out scheme for Integrated Community Schools, we are involved in one of the key areas for improvement - “Health Promotion”. We have implemented a new Health programme involving all the Hawick schools as well as looking at a holistic approach to all issues surrounding the health of the children. We now have a “Healthy Tuck-shop” and school meals provide a balanced diet carefully designed by both the local authority and the Borders Health Trust

All staff have recently received training in a drugs and alcohol programme which we are implementing immediately

HEALTHY TUCK SHOP

As part of or work to promote a healthy lifestyle, we now have a healthy tuck shop run by parents, the janitor and Primary 7 pupils. The range of options does vary but the list below gives a flavour of what we offer.

apple/pear	20p	Box of Raisins	10p	Cup of Apple/Orange Juice	10p
½ apple	10p	Bread Stick	5p	Fruit Bag (mix of fruit segments)	15p
Banana	20p	Milk (cup)	10p	Milk Shake	10p
Cereal Bar	15p	Cracker/cheese spread	15p	Carrot Sticks (5)	5p
Prices will vary depending on season/availability.

We really do need more parents to help with the tuck shop.
