Healthy Active Learning

Enhancing tamariki and rangatahi wellbeing

Healthy Active Learning is a joint government initiative between Sport NZ, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health and Health NZ – Te Whatu Ora. It supports schools, kura and early learning services to improve the wellbeing of tamariki and rangatahi through healthy eating and drinking, and quality physical activity and curriculum delivery.

The initiative enables schools, kura and early learning services to create healthy and active learning environments, and better connection to their local communities.

Healthy Active Learning was launched in 2019 as one of the key actions under New Zealand’s Child Youth and Wellbeing Strategy
