Health & Wellness at the CBE
At the CBE, we believe in a whole school approach to health and wellness. We call this our Comprehensive School Health (CSH) approach. CSH is about healthy eating, active living, supportive social environments and positive mental health. As a system, we focus on the following four areas: healthy eating; healthy relationships; physical activity; and positive mental health. Each school creates its own approach and goals for health and wellness.

Recess Snacks & Friday Nutrition Break
It is important for all K – Grade 5 students to have a nutritious snack at recess (for Kindergarten students this is eaten in the classroom). Morning snacks are especially important for our Grade 3, 4 & 5 students, as they will not be eating lunch until 11:45 a.m. Also, please do not send juice boxes for the morning recess snack. Students are encouraged to drink water.
On Fridays, all Grade 1 – 5 students need to bring a substantial snack to be eaten at nutrition break at 10:00 – 10:30 AM. On Fridays when your Kindergarten child attends, please send a substantial snack/lunch.
