GET MOVING MANCHESTER 2019 WINNING SCHOOLS


School Food and Nutrition Services is proud to announce our Get Moving Manchester program winning schools! Congratulations to Parker Varney and Highland Goffe's Falls Elementary Schools for having the highest participation for all 4 weeks of the program.

Get Moving Manchester is a 4-week nutrition and physical activity school based program for students in grades 3-5. The program began on Monday, March 18 and ended on Friday, April 12

Get Moving Manchester demonstrates how parents, guardians and teachers can play a major role in influencing the overall health and wellness of our children/students. By making smart choices together, parents and teachers can set an example for a healthy lifestyle. Research shows that children’s behaviors are learned through the observation of others.

The program was made possible by our sponsors: Manchester School Food and Nutrition Services, Catholic Medical Center, Dartmouth Hitchcock Manchester, Anthem, Anagnost Inc., Palace Theatre, Fisher Cats and Bike Barn.
