Say NO to Energy Drinks

Friday, 26 May 2023
At Star International School, Al Twar we enforce a healthy eating policy where we strongly urge against adding unhealthy foods to lunchboxes and meals. When students do bring something in, we challenge them and contact their parents to remind them of our healthy eating policy. In our primary school, students are regularly rewarded with healthy eating certificates when they are seen to be eating healthy, and these are given out in assemblies to encourage more students to eat and drink healthily.  

We urge our encourage our entire community to adopt a healthy lifestyle and this often means avoiding things like energy drinks. 

Our Head of Pastoral Care, Student Development, Wellbeing and Safeguarding (DSL), Sean Lewis, recently shared his thoughts on this subject with Khaleej Times. Read the article here
