Healthy School

Healthy eating habits help students maintain focus, attention, and memory, leading to better learning outcomes.

EIS’s primary objective is to ensure the optimal well-being and success of all our students, emphasizing their physical and emotional health. This commitment is reflected in our dedicated focus on promoting healthy eating habits within our school.

Here are some key benefits of emphasising healthy eating in schools:

1. Improved Physical Health

A well-balanced diet, rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy products, provides essential nutrients for growth, development, and overall health. It helps maintain healthy body weight, strengthens the immune system, reduces the risk of chronic diseases, and enhances energy levels.

2. Enhanced Mental Well-being

Proper nutrition has a positive impact on mental health. Nutrient deficiencies can lead to cognitive impairment, mood swings, and decreased concentration. A healthy diet, including omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, supports brain function, reduces stress levels, and improves emotional well-being.

“Children who eat a nutritious diet have improved cognitive abilities, higher test scores, and better classroom behavior.”

3. Academic Performance

Good nutrition is closely linked to academic achievement. Healthy eating habits help students maintain focus, attention, and memory, leading to better learning outcomes. Studies have shown that children who eat a nutritious diet have improved cognitive abilities, higher test scores, and better classroom behavior.

“By promoting nutritious food choices and teaching them about balanced meals, we are equipping students with essential knowledge and skills for maintaining a healthy lifestyle throughout their lives.”

4. Establishing Lifelong Habits

Introducing healthy eating practices during the school years helps students develop lifelong habits that can benefit them in the long run. By promoting nutritious food choices and teaching them about balanced meals, we are equipping students with essential knowledge and skills for maintaining a healthy lifestyle throughout their lives.
