3.WELLNESS
The health and physical well-being of our students directly affects their
ability to learn. Childhood obesity increases the incidence of adult diseases
occurring in children and adolescents such as heart disease, high blood pressure
and diabetes. The increased risk carries forward into their adulthood. Research
indicates that a healthy diet and regular physical activity can help prevent obesity
and the diseases resulting from it. It is understood that the eating habits and
exercise patterns of students cannot be magically changed overnight, but at the
same time, the board of directors believes it is necessary to strive to create a
culture in our schools that consistently promotes good nutrition and physical
13
activity. The problem of obesity and inactivity is a public health issue. The board
is keenly aware that it has taken years for this problem to reach its present level
and will similarly take years to correct. The responsibility for addressing the
problem lies not only with the schools and the Department of Education, but with
the community and its residents, organizations and agencies. Therefore, the
school shall enlist the support of the larger community to find solutions which
improve the health and physical activity of our students.
Goals
In its efforts to improve the school nutrition environment, promote student
health, and reduce childhood obesity, the school will adhere to the call of the
DepEd about Rules Governing Nutrition and Physical Activity Standards in
Public Schools. Adhering to these Rules will include, but is not limited to school
efforts to
1. Appoint a school health coordinator who shall be responsible for ensuring that
school fulfills the requirements of this policy;
4. Strive to improve the quality of physical education curricula and increase the
training of physical education teachers;
