Aims:

 

There is currently no company, organization, government or private body offering a Healthy & Active lifestyle camp program for kids in Queensland. Thus, the aim of Healthy & Active Kids Holidays Programs is to become the leading authority focusing on improving the health of young Queenslanders. The program specifically aims to assist and encourage young people to:

 

Understand the benefits of daily physical activity & understand the importance of setting functional & practical short and long term goals in relation to daily physical activity. In doing this participants will have a better understanding of the numerous practical ways in which they can be active, enjoy exercise and accomplish their physical activity goals and in-turn create a culture of daily physical activity/exercise.

Gain an in-depth understanding of basic nutrition & recognise practical ways to have a well-balanced diet. In doing this participants will be educated on practical ways to eat healthy meals and be able to develop practical, structured healthy eating plans to ensure they grow up to be healthy, fit, strong and energetic young men & women.

 

Feel good about being themselves, by acknowledging positive things about themselves and realizing they are different from their body’s which will in-turn result in improved psychological well-being.In showing young boys and girls ways to deal assertively with bullying/teasing/negative peer relations & how to develop healthy attitudes to do with eating, drinking & moving and being a healthy weight participants will develop psychologically sound eating, drinking and moving patterns that are sensible and sustainable for life.
