RedBranch in Schools

We can help you to set up a school fruit break, we can help organise a school lifestyle survey, we can help to improve physical activity levels in your school, we can help to make your school environment more healthy, and we can help your students to access healthy school food. You could simply share some of your ideas with us, or ask our advice.

All our resources and services contribute to the curriculum (SPHE and PSHE in particular) and are freely available to schools, teachers and parents across Ireland. Our work can help your school to gain the status of a health promoting school.

We provide a range of teacher resources that can help you to introduce health-related themes into your teaching. You can access our range of parent factsheets by clicking the link on the left. We also help schools to develop lifestyle-related policies (e.g. healthy eating policies) and you can access our school lifestyle template policy document by clicking here.

Please let us know how the number of copies of our material that you distribute. For example, if you would like to use our parent factsheet on healthy lunchboxes, just email us and let us know how many copies you will be distributing.  

Providing alternative physical activities at school can really help to promote physical activity amongst students...if you need help, contact RedBranch

Changing the school environment makes a difference...why not get rid of the soft drinks vending machines at your school and replace them with water?

School fruit breaks at National School have a huge effect on childrens health
