Designed by the Healthy Heroes in 2022

Our Healthy Heroes are a group within the school that aim to build upon the leadership skills of young people so that they are empowered to take on the following roles:

• Be the school voice for Physical Development and sport in the school and community.
• Promote the positive values of sport.
• Be a role model and Sport Ambassador for PE.
• Promote healthy eating.
• Promote good mental and emotional health and well being

We consider Physical Education a very important aspect of the curriculum here at Penclawdd Primary School.

Healthy Schools

Here at Penclawdd Primary School we are committed to helping all our children to become healthy, confident individuals who are able to make their own healthy choices, now and throughout their whole lives.

A ‘Healthy School’ is one which takes responsibility for maintaining and promoting the health of all who ‘learn, work, play and live’ within it . It actively promotes, protects and embeds the physical, mental and social health and well being of its community through positive action.

We have a right to life, survival and development! (Article 6 UNCRC)

We believe that cycling is far more than just a physical activity with all the benefits that brings – it is also a key life skill providing an opportunity to develop social skills, thinking skills, resilience, perseverance and independence.

Here are our Healthy Heroes!
