Schools taste healthy living
A HEALTHY living project which is the first of its kind in Scotland has been launched in two city schools. Children at Craigroyston Primary and the Woodlands Special School are being targeted by the NHS Lothian scheme.
It sees the pupils, their parents and the communities they live in being encouraged to take part in more exercise activities and given cooking classes to learn how to prepare healthy food.
Lorna Stewart, the head teacher at Craigroyston, said: "
Supporting children and adults to be able to make healthier lifestyle choices will be of long-term benefit for our children's health."
