Students, teachers and staff got moving for National School Moves Day at Bethabara Primary School in Manchester.

From jumping jacks and skipping rope to hula hoop, football, netball and basketball, the day encouraged students to have fun while building coordination, social skills and healthier habits.

The initiative promotes at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily for children, along with healthy choices such as drinking more water and eating fruits and vegetables. These habits can help reduce the risk of non-communicable diseases later in life.

Southern Regional Health Authority continues to support activities that help our children build healthier bodies, sharper minds and stronger communities.

Let’s keep moving, drinking water and making healthier choices every day.

On Thursday, April 16, the Manchester Health Department through its Foot Care Unit hosted a Diabetic Foot Care event, highlighting the importance of prevention, early detection, and proper foot care for persons living with diabetes.

The event, which was held at the Mandeville Comprehensive Health Centre, provided useful information on how patients are referred to the foot care programme, whether through a curative clinician or through Community Health Aides during field activities, including home visits.

Patients were also encouraged to inspect their feet daily for corns, calluses, and long or thickened nails. Using a mirror or asking a family member to assist with daily checks can help with early identification of problems.

The team emphasised that diabetic patients should be screened at every visit, with more detailed inspections done every seven months. High-risk patients can also be identified and prioritised early through ongoing inspection, especially when blood sugar levels are poorly controlled.

Good blood sugar control, regular screening, and daily foot checks all play an important role in reducing complications.
