Through one-hour weekly sessions,Year 5 and 6 pupils are supported by ourTrust team to learn the nuts and bolts of a healthy lifestyle.We show them what makes the most important organ in the body tick, and how to look after it into adulthood. After six weeks, each child’s activity book will be full of facts on how the heart works, and they’ll be armed with a host of tips for keeping it in fine fettle through exercise and a balanced diet.They’ll also have learned the basics of first aid, and used up plenty of energy during weekly practical activities.
