Staying Healthy and Active
At Mulgrave we recognise that for children to stay healthy they need to have a healthy diet, and ensure they are active everyday. Developng these skills at a young age will enable children to make informed choices about their diet and physical activity throughout their lives. At Mulgrave, we teach the children about healthy living through lessons such as P.E., cooking, science and PSHE. However, we firmly believe that both school and home need to work together to ensure the best outcomes for our pupils.
