Events

On November 2-3, 2017 Physical and Health Education Canada (PHE Canada) will host a Healthy School Communities National Forum in Ottawa, Ontario. Keynotes, plenaries and breakout sessions from experts and on-the-ground champions from the education, health, active living, government and research sectors will profile healthy school approaches, success stories and evidence for fostering healthy school communities. This biennial National event is a must attend for education administrators who are critical for raising the importance of health as a key programming component and for supporting the establishment of a healthy schools framework within schools or school jurisdictions.

We are reaching out to organizations that share our passion for healthy child and youth development to make you and your stakeholders aware of this opportunity and to request your support in disseminating information on our behalf. The benefits of attendance will be evident as delegates will return equipped with new tools, networks, evidence and motivation to support the implementation of comprehensive school health approaches and make positive change.

Attached (https://goo.gl/SJOqRk) you will find a messaging kit that contains a sample e-mail, announcements and social media messages for Facebook and Twitter that can be easily disseminated through your networks. We appreciate your consideration in promoting our event and our efforts to support school communities to become healthier places for learning.
