Each of us has the option and the responsibility to decide what kind of future we want. Do we want a future
characterized by active living or one marked by symptoms and declining energy? During Health education I use the term WELLNESS. Your wellness is largely determined by the decisions you make. My goal for our health unit is to show students how to make good choices that will enable them to live life fully.
Units of study that students will experience are:

Physical Health	Grades 1-6
Universal Precautions	Grades 1-6
Personal Safety	Grades 1-6
Stress management	Grades 2 ,4 and 6
Nutrition	grades 1, 3 and 5
Human Growth and Developement	Grade 4 - girls only, Grades 5 and 6 boys and girls
