Heathly Living

Healthy Living educates and encourages positive choices in the areas of physical activity, healthy eating, environmental awareness, and social, emotional and mental well-being.  The curricular subjects that are strongly linked to the concept of Healthy Living are Health and Career Education (HACE), Physical Education (PE), Science, as well as Banting PRIDE (Personal and Social Responsibility).

"In British Columbia, we are fortunate to be one of the healthiest populations in Canada and the world. Every day, we make choices about the food we eat and our lifestyles.  We can make healthier choices for ourselves and our families that make a real difference to our ability to remain healthy and active now, and enjoy life to its fullest in the future.”

Notes
  
Grant application for kids (ages 5-18) in financial need, paying for their sport registration fees.
  
Helps kids in financial need with sport registration fees, transportation and equipment.  Takes toll-free call center applications (1-877-616-6600) during the last two weeks in July and the last two weeks in January.
  
Minimum of 30 minutes a day!  Encourage your child to get involved in the many physically active opportunities offered at Banting and in our community.  Better school performance, better sleep, more energy and fewer behavioural problems are just a few of the benefits you could see with an increase in physical activity.  There is a spot in their planner for students to track their physical activity on a daily basis.
  
HealthLinkBC is the gateway to access, non-emergency health information services in BC.   It is a phone number (8-1-1) and it is a website. It is also a collection of print (BC HealthGuide handbook and HealthLinkBC Files), and telephone resources, which put both services and health information into the hands of BC residents.
