Our Healthy Year: Reception presentations

These PowerPoint presentations introduce healthy lifestyles to pupils in an exciting way. For ideas on how you can use them, see the Our Healthy Year: Reception toolkit.

These presentations are the perfect way to start your healthy year!

Try this

During the presentation, ask pupils to jump up to touch the air every time they hear about a healthy behaviour, or bend down to touch the floor every time they hear about an unhealthy one!

In the classroom

Using a favourite soft toy to help you, run through the Our Healthy Year presentation to make sure pupils have a basic understanding of eating well and moving more, and to tell them about the other Our Healthy Year activities. Follow up with the Our Healthy Day story presentation.

This pack includes handy notes below the slides to help you deliver the presentations and encourage your class to get involved.

For more ideas see the Our Healthy Year: Reception toolkit.
