Healthy Under Fives
Healthy Under Fives is a hugely important part of our time at preschool.
The children love our daily Mini-Movers: the room is filled with laughter!
We regularly have visits from blah blah to support us in our provision in this area.
We also regularly welcome parents into preschool to learn more about what we do in preschool and to join in with our Mini-Movers session. The photo shows us just as we have all sat down quickly as part of a routine - the room was filled with laughter and shouts and squeals (and that was just the adults)!
Healthy Under 5s aims to encourage and support all early years childcare providers to become health promoting environments and encourage healthy lifestyles from an early age.
Here at St Nicholas and St Faith, we offer HU5s activities within our weekly programme. The links below will give you access to various information and advice sheets on the first of the areas we are working on.
