The Schools Wellness Club (SWC) has been developed to assist students and their families to meet their physical, financial, intellectual, spiritual, mental and health needs. In so doing, the SWC aims to contribute to the well-being of school staff, the creation of healthy school environments and the maximization of school achievement through increased awareness of wholesome health practices, knowledge expansion and prudent financial management. The Schools Wellness Club mobilizes the resources of home, school and community through the following components:

• Health and Financial Education
• Parent/Community Involvement
• Practical, Physical and Educational Activity
• Financial and Health Promotion for Teachers
• Career, Financial and Well-Being Seminars for students, teachers and parents

The philosophy of the SWC is "Future Leaders Actively Engage In Wellness" and is the driving force behind this initiative.
