Welcome to the Amaven Healthy Schools Programme

Children need to learn how their bodies work, why physical and mental health is important and what it means to eat a healthy diet. They need to develop competency at playing sports and pursue physical activities that are engaging and enjoyable.

Our Health and Wellbeing Programme supports teachers and parents/carers as they guide children to adopt healthy lifestyles and the skills needed to achieve them. With our tools and resources, schools can implement a whole school health programme that is fully compatible with PE, PSHE, RSE, Science, and Design and Technology curriculums.

The first step is to book a FREE Wellness Kickstart Day delivered by Amaven Health Mentors. It's a dynamic event designed to introduce the concept of Healthy Active Lifestyles in school and at home. To get started, please complete a membership form.

After joining, schools will receive the following FREE resources:
