IntroductionIntroduction

Based on the "Health Promoting School" framework promulgated by the World Health Organization, the "Whole School Health Programme" (WSHP) assists schools to systematically review and formulate health promotion measures related to physical activity, healthy eating, mental health and social well-being, to become healthy setting for living, learning and working gradually.

To empower our adolescents to face the challenges of growing up, the Student Health Service provides quality health promotional activities for physical and psychosocial health for our adolescents under Whole School Health Programme - Outreach Service (formerly known as Adolescent Health Programme).
