> The AIA Healthiest Schools (AHS) programme is back for its second year, welcoming schools across Malaysia to be part of a unique initiative focused on fostering health and wellness within school communities.
> Endorsed by the Education Ministry, the AHS programme is designed to encourage healthy living habits among students aged five to 16.
> The programme, which is open to all government, private and international schools for both primary and secondary levels, provides free downloadable teaching resources (available in English, Bahasa Malaysia and Mandarin) to empower schoolteachers to introduce health and well-being concepts effectively in their classrooms.
> To further motivate participating schools to showcase their impact and success in driving better health outcomes among students, the AHS programme includes a competition that offers prizes totalling up to USD$100,000 (RM450,090).
> To help teachers seamlessly integrate and adapt the AHS programme to their existing teaching plans, AIA Malaysia’s education partner, LeapEd, conducts hands-on workshops for added support.
> From incorporating mindful practices into daily routines to fostering healthy eating habits, the interactive workshops offer actionable steps to create a healthier school environment.
> Teachers gain practical, easy-to-implement techniques and explore strategies to foster resilience and promote positive mental health in their students.
