The Healthy Heroes are a pupil voice group made up of our Sports Ambassadors and supported by Miss Davies. Their mission is to help everyone in our school feel healthy, happy and active. They want to promote healthy eating, support positive mental health, and encourage children to stay active through sport and play. They lead by example, listen to others, and help make Cwmbach Church in Wales a school where everyone feels safe, supported and ready to learn. This year, they will be launching a new ‘HAPPEN’ survey, encouraging everyone to try healthy snacks during ‘Snack‑tember’, and exploring what makes a healthy packed lunch.

“The Daily Mile” is coming to

Cwmbach Church in Wales Primary

We’re excited to introduce “The Daily Mile” to our school community. Our aim is simple, to help children move more, feel better, and stay active in a fun, low pressure way that everyone can join in with. For 15 minutes, at least three times a week, the children will be encouraged to walk together outdoors.

“The Daily Mile” was created by teachers for the benefit of children everywhere, in response to the growing health challenges young people face today. Research consistently shows that regular exercise boosts children’s ability to learn, concentrate, and retain information, helping them to feel more focused and ready to learn throughout the day. Walking together helps children build healthy habits, boosts mood and focus, and supports their physical and emotional wellbeing.

Our wonderful Healthy Heroes will be championing “The Daily Mile” across the school. They will encourage their peers, celebrate everyone’s achievements, and help Miss Davies log the steps and miles we complete together.

We can’t wait to see how far we go together.
