I am writing in reply to Ann Garrett's letter, Promote Health In Our Schools (News Shopper, June 1).
At Parish Church of England Primary School we have an annual Healthy School Week.
In the mornings the children learn about healthy living and eating and in the afternoons they have physical education lessons, sampling a range of sports, dance and gymnastics.
Each child also visits the Life Education Bus.
Throughout the year the children learn about health-related issues in their lessons.
Through a government initiative, infants receive a free piece of fruit every day and our school encourages the children to drink water or milk, rather than sugary drinks.
Our school encourages children to walk to and from school and participates in the Walk On Wednesdays scheme.
Last half term, the school achieved a Healthy School Award.
I am sure all schools in Bromley are working just as hard to encourage our children to be healthy and active.
