Healthy Learners Program
The Healthy Learners in School program is a joint initiative of the Department of Education and the Department of Health. It aims to improve the health, wellness and learning potential of New Brunswick’s students by promoting healthy behaviours which will be carried into adulthood. The program goals are that the school community, which includes students, parents, educators, and support staff, will:
- Acquire knowledge, attitudes and skills to achieve wellness
- Create healthy and safe learning environments
- Have access to services and support
The Healthy Learners in School program encourages coordinated health promotion and disease/injury prevention activities in schools, districts, homes and communities using a comprehensive school health framework.
