The Bibbulmun Track Foundation proudly supports the 2013 Take the Challenge program

The BTF proudly supported the 2013 Take the Challenge program by donating a Bibbulmun Track prize pack to the winners – Hocking Primary School’s ‘LA20’s Awesome Healthy Physical Students’!

Take the Challenge promotes regular physical activ…ity and healthy eating schools. The program aims to promote healthy lifestyle behaviours in students by:

• Developing their understanding of the importance of regular physical activity, eating healthy food and drinking water to beat disease.
• Developing their decision making skills.
• Fostering positive attitudes and behaviours that can inform and enhance the quality of their own and others’ lives.
• Involving parents and the community to reinforce the messages.

A health promoting schools approach is the most effective way of making positive contributions to student health and learning outcomes.
