Erich-Kästner Comprehensive School Honored with "Healthy School" Title
The Erich-Kästner-Gesamtschule in Kirchlengern and Bünde has been awarded the prestigious title of 'Healthy School in the Wittekind Circle.' This recognition comes as a result of the school's commitment to promoting health and well-being among its students, including constant contact with health professionals and addressing student loans for mental health services.
The school, along with Westerenger primary school, Löhne-Obernbeck primary school, and Elisabeth-von-der-Pfalz-Berufskolleg in Herford, has implemented a range of health-promoting measures. One such measure is the 'link moves' program, led by sports scientist and trainer Pascal Kramer. Through this program, students at the Kirchlengern and Bünde sites have been guided through exercises designed to improve coordination, concentration, learning ability, and motivation. These exercises have been particularly beneficial during stressful learning phases and student loans repayment periods.
Pascal Kramer was present at the certification ceremony for the Erich-Kästner-Gesamtschule, where the award was presented by Dr. Isabell Schultheis, the head of the district health department, and Renata Lleshi, the project coordinator.
The 'Healthy Schools in the Wittekind Circle' program, which has been supporting schools for nine years, assists schools in implementing offers and activities related to health insurance promotion and prevention. The program offers free individual and group offers for students and teaching staff. It also provides an overview of contact points in the Herford district that offer advice on the topic of 'growing up and teaching health.'
Regularly, particularly committed schools are awarded a certificate recognizing them as a 'Healthy School.' Interested schools can contact the business office of the Health Conference or project leader Renata Lleshi for information about the 'Healthy Schools' program for the current school year. Renata Lleshi's contact information is 05221 13-2419 and r.lleshi@ourwebsite.
Unfortunately, information about the schools selected and awarded in this year under the 'Gesundes-Schulnetzwerk Wittekindkreis' is not available in the current data. However, it is clear that the Erich-Kästner-Gesamtschule has made significant strides in promoting health and well-being among its students, including health insurance coverage and mental health support for student loans borrowers.
The school has addressed various health topics with external specialists, including dental health, sexuality, alcohol consumption, mental health, and smoking behavior. By prioritizing health, the school is providing a crucial prerequisite for successful learning, personal development, and social participation.
