Our project title is 'I'm a Super Duper Healthy Trooper'. The aim of our project is to encourage children to examine aspects of their lives and try to make changes to their lifestyles that will have a lifelong impact. The project will be broken into 6 segments/terms and each term will have different targets. This is reflected in the project activities Term 1 - Launch of Project - introduction, questionnaires Term 2 - Focus on Diet Term 3 - Mobility of Students Term 4 - Focus on Exercise Term 5 - Focus on Mental Health Term 6 - Final Product - collaboration of all our good practice The main aim of our Project is to get children, teachers and parents to examine their diets, exercise and intrapersonal skills. Research has shown that educating children to look after their minds and bodies from a young age can save governments huge amounts of money when these people grow older. This project can be seen as an investment to help save both our Governments lots of money down the line. This project aims to foster autonomy in all the students from the partnership and enhance their skills by creating a real-life meaningful context where they will learn and practice how to look after their minds and bodies. In accordance with the curriculum, the students will develop their English, Arts and Technology skills. However, this project has an important cultural and traditional background (students will connect with their own roots and other cultures' traditions as they research about themselves and another country). This will help students become more aware of what makes their culture unique and irreplaceable, while also showing them that other cultures can simultaneously be very different and very similar to each other. Students, teachers and the whole community will learn about other cultures not only when discovering new information about another country but also when working cooperatively or when visiting a partner country. The interpersonal and intrapersonal skills the students will learn will give them valuable skills that they might use in their adult lives and teachers will learn how to apply these skills in their curriculum; students will acquire the self confidence and autonomy they need to realise they can achieve any goal. This Project will provide lifelong learning for all partners involved.
