What is Activ8 Eatwell?

Activ8 Eatwell is an initiative from Sport Northern Ireland and the Food Standards Agency promoting 8 steps for children to get active and eat well to stay healthy.

How will the pupils benefit?

Pupils participating in this programme will be encouraged to lead healthy and active lifestyles by:

• Being physically active
• Developing their physical literacy skills and a positive attitude towards physical activity
• Making informed and healthy choices about food intake

Why promote physical activity and healthy eating?

All children should have the knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes that will enable them to make active and healthy choices throughout their life that will be beneficial to themselves, others, society and the environment.
