Life Education Centre’s new mobile classroom
A £40,000 grant from Hillingdon Community Trust has helped to put a new mobile classroom on the road in the south of the Borough for the Life Education Centre Hillingdon. The new mobile classroom visits primary schools to teach children about how to make healthy choices, providing learning ranging from cleaning teeth to the dangers of unhealthy living, including smoking, drug and alcohol abuse. The classroom replaces one bought in 1997 and it is hoped that the 18 primary schools in the Trust’s area will all benefit from a visit each year.
Life Education Centre educators, who are usually qualified teachers, deliver the lessons in a lively and engaging way, helped by Harold the giraffe.
Life Education Centres Hillingdon has also been funded to deliver its programme in schools in the Trust’s area for the next three years.
