Make a difference in
your school and
community
Applying our model of creating healthy
communities through school, home and
community partnerships, your school can
benefit too. Once a school-wide application
of four values Be Safe, Be Respectful and
Be Responsible, Be Healthy has happened,
behavioural challenges are effectively
addressed and the school, which is nexus of
the community, affords learners
opportunities for academic and behavioural
discipline success. Through our planned
workshops, seminars and professional
development sessions learners, teachers
and parents benefit.
