Barden Primary School strives to sustainably embed physical activity and promote healthy lifestyle opportunities for children, young people and all associated with the school. This includes the curriculum, the environment and the wider community.

Physical activity contributes to good physical and mental development. It has a wide range of physical and emotional benefits, from developing strength, increasing concentration and educational performance and learning. It also boosts moods and reduces the risk of many lifestyle-related diseases.
