In 2008, the start state for overweight students in our school was 21.8%. We revamped our Sports and Wellness program with the inclusion of structured theory lessons to supplement the traditional physical activities approach. The results at the end of the year were encouraging as our overweight students dropped to 15.8%. It was more important to note that number of students in all weight ranges decreased. Sports and Wellness booklets were written to make weight management information easily available to students. A health education website was also created for our students. The long term effects of this approach are evident as our start state for 2009 is 18.8% and only 30 students who graduated in 2008 returned to the programme. The program was broadened in 2009 to include the underweight students.
