Ribbleton Avenue Methodist Junior School

All we can, All I can, All you can

Here at Ribbleton Avenue Methodist Junior School we want the best for our pupils. Healthy students are better learners.  Research shows that eating habits and healthy behaviours are connected to Academic Achievement. A healthy diet can also improve a child's emotional and mental wellbeing.

We have recently introduced our "Healthy Choices Award" to encourage children and Staff to make healthy choices.

These can be:

• Swapping an item for a healthy snack for break time or in their packed lunch e.g chocolate bar for a piece of fruit
• Having healthy items in their packed lunch
• Trying new foods from the school menu e.g vegetables

Children and staff can be nominated for our Healthy Choice Award for making small changes, swapping to healthy items, trying new foods or making healthy choices. Staff are awarded a certificate and children are given a goodie bag. These are then celebrated and recognised in our Celebration Assembly.

Children and staff can be nominated for our Appreciation Awards for going above and beyond in school. Staff are awarded a certificate and children are given a goodie bag. These are then celebrated and recognised in our Celebration Assembly.
