Recent statistics have shown that the abundance of ‘sit down' forms of recreation is having a negative effect on the physical and social well-being of teenagers. Last year we took extra steps to tackle this problem and QHHS Fitness Club was born. This year up to 50 students per session have braved the frosty winter mornings to attend. These sessions run two mornings a week over a 6 week program followed by a healthy breakfast of cereal, juice, toast and fruit. Student participation has been brilliant which has led to noticeable improvement in physical fitness, attitude, general well-being, self-esteem, teamwork and most of all, enjoyment. A huge ‘Well Done' to all involved.
