To Be Healthy
Health
and well-being
Project To Be developed and launched the To Be Healthy project, aiming for its schools to be a reference in promoting health and well-being in educational communities.
Healthy and Sustainable School Meals
Regarding school meals, To Be Healthy aims to adopt healthier and more sustainable eating habits and practices. It is implemented in partnership with nutritionist Mariana Bessa, from Nutrir – Food and Nutrition Consulting and includes:
- A variety of menus, balanced and complex, with natural food and essential nutrients and a daily ovolactovegetarian option;
- Training of staff members at schools (kitchen staff, for training and improvement of menu preparation methods, and teachers, who will continue the food education project with students);
- Food education activities with students;
- Workshops with families;
- Monitoring and reducing food waste.
To Be Healthy menus focus on offering fresh fruits and vegetables, reducing meat consumption and reducing the use of refined sugars and salt.
Physical Activity and Sports
To Be Healthy promotes the practice of regular physical activity and sports in everyday school life, recognising their benefits and contributing to the physical, emotional, social and cognitive development of students.
To Be Schools recognise the importance of playing and have prioritised carrying out recreational and educational activities outdoors, regularly putting students in contact with nature.
To Be Schools have numerous curricular and extracurricular activities related to physical activity and students develop projects on the topics of health education and healthy lifestyle habits. Interschool initiatives (tournaments, school visits and outings) are promoted at schools and in the community, and activities are organised with the participation of families (walks, projects).
