Damien Hewitt, HT Sandford St Martin’s First School (now HT at Hamworthy First) "If you read the Life Education Mission statement they use words like …. ‘partnership, engage, community, supporting’. I would like to go one further and use the word ‘family’. Moira and her team have become an essential and integral part of our family. The Life Education visit is the first date arranged in our diary and we always look forward to the excitement and interest it creates. Harold’s bus creates an added dimension to our curriculum and inspires our pupils – everyone leaves the bus with a sense of awe and wonder; each and everyone leaving with a clear understanding of the programme they have just partaken in. Long before it became a national framework, to Moira and her Life Education team Every Child Matters!!Thank you Moira for all the wonderful work you do!” Sheryl Atkinson, Swanage Middle
“My class loved this active learning session. All were engaged … they responded with perceptive comments and questions. This completely reinforced our Autumn Term units of work in PHSE and Science; it enabled me to assess how much they had understood and enhanced their learning experience further still. Well-paced, can be accessed by all …the skill of the presenter charmed the children into understanding more about health, life, dangers and responsibilities.” Jan Lever, PSHE Advisor, Borough of Poole "We build Life Education into every school's Drugs & Alcohol Education Programme. Its interactive approach inspires children to make healthy & safe lifestyle choices as they understand how to respect and look after themselves. LEC is an asset and a valued partner." Paul Absolom (Head of PSHCE) St Osmund's Middle School Dorchester "We greatly value the input of the Life Van. Topics dovetail into both our PSHE and PE curriculum areas. The experience greatly enhances our efforts towards developing a positive, healthy, active and open climate for our pupils in which to learn and develop socially, emotionally and physically." Florence aged 11 "Every year I look forward to seeing Harold and learning new and amazing things. I will always remember visiting the life van." Shirley Dimmer, grandparent "My grandson wouldn't eat vegetables until Harold told him they're healthy and now he'll only eat them raw!" Sally Birley, Headteacher, Merley First School "Life Education provides an unforgettable experience for our pupils while helping them to develop positive attitudes & the ability to make healthy choices." Jessica aged 9 "Hay Harold, you're so cool. Can't wait to see you again. Tell Lucy I'm going to make healthy choices." Jason, parent "Our children are captivated by the Life Bus. A really special time that they remember and look forward to every year."
