Health Promoting School Champion Award
Our Health Promoting School Champion Award recognizes an individual, group or organization for their exemplary contribution to the development, promotion and/or implementation of Health Promoting Schools.
A Health Promoting School approach includes a variety of activities and services which take place in schools and the surrounding community to enable children and youth to enhance their health, develop to their fullest potential, and establish productive and satisfying relationships in their present and future lives. In some ways, a Health Promoting School can be greater than the school itself, which is why it is often referred to as a healthy school community. However, the school is almost always at the centre of the hub from which healthy living is fostered for all stakeholders including students, school staff, families, community members and the broader community itself.
