NCR and Central Visayas schools hailed as Wellness champions for SY 2021-2022

Schools receive recognition of best implementation of Nestlé Wellness Campus Program

Pasig City’s Pinagbuhatan Elementary School and Tanjay City’s San Miguel High School were named as this year’s champions for having the best implementation of the Nestlé Wellness Campus (NWC) program. They triumphed over participating public schools from across the country, showcasing the best strategies to promote nutrition, health and wellness practices in their communities.

Through the partnership of Nestlé Philippines and the Department of Education (DepEd), the Nestlé Wellness Campus (NWC) program was born to help educate the youth and the community about the value of healthier food and lifestyle choices. Every year, participating schools take a proactive role in implementing the program’s dancercise, student and adult modules, and their own wellness initiatives to promote the 7 Healthy Habits — Choose Nutritious and Varied Options, Manage Portions, Choose to Drink Water and Milk, Enjoy Meals Together, Play Actively, Care for the Planet, Keep Good Hygiene.

“As we work hand-in-hand with the DepEd for the implementation of our Nestlé Wellness Campus program, the schools themselves make all the difference.” said Kevin Carpio, RND, Nestlé Wellness Campus Project Lead and Corporate Nutritionist. “Thanks to their creativity, willingness, and dedication, they are not only able to guide students, but continue instilling in them the value of proper nutrition and physical activity, which is vital for good health, especially in the new normal.”

For SY 2021-2022, the national competition was divided into two categories — Inter-School (Elementary and High School) and Inter-Region. While blended learning has its challenges, over 1,600 entries were submitted from across seven regions, highlighting the strong engagement and competitiveness of many participating schools.

Winners from the division level until the nationals took home plaques and trophies to commemorate their victory. They also received prize packages worth a total of more than PHP 2M that they can use to further improve their school facilities and infrastructure.

“At a time like this, it’s become more important than ever to prioritize the health and wellness of families, especially for the children whose potential we are nurturing,” shared Kais Marzouki, Nestlé Philippines Chairman and CEO. “With the Nestlé Wellness Campus Awards, we’re closing the program’s 9th year, and none of this would have been possible without the help of the Department of Education. Congratulations to all our champions and finalists, but let it be said that as we advocate the health and wellness of more and more children, we’re already winning.”
