Wake PTA Sponsors Brains and Bodies Workshop

Parents may register to take part in "Brains and Bodies: How parents can influence the health and academic success of children." Tuesday, Jan. 13, 10 until 11:30 a.m. at the WakeMed North Healthplex Conference Room, 10000 Falls of Neuse Road, Raleigh.

In this interactive workshop, attendees will hear about statewide efforts to prevent and reduce childhood obesity while helping children achieve success in school. Learn about the tools and resources that exist in our state and nation to help us achieve our goal of healthy, happy children. Through small group work, you will find creative and fun ways to incorporate the use of these tools and concepts into the work we do as parents in our schools. This workshop is open to anyone interested in learning more about children's health initiatives - PTA parents, teachers, administrators, school nurses, grandparents, caregivers - anyone with an interest!
