IHHP | Palmerston- 'H2O, is the GO!'

City of Palmerston, Rosebery Middle School and IHHP, with help from COPAL and NTG recently filmed this amazing educational video in Palmerston. The idea behind the clip was to educate our community and students from all over Australia, just how dangerous sugary drinks can be for your health and why you should choose water first.
In Australia, soft drinks are the most commonly consumed sweet beverage and have been singled out for specific attention as a target of obesity prevention programs. Soft drinks are well-known, readily available and marketed extensively, especially to adolescents. They have limited nutritional value and are identified as an ‘extra food’ - one that should be consumed only occasionally and in small amounts by the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating. The Australian Guide to Healthy Eating also identifies ‘Choose water as a drink’ as one of the Australian dietary guidelines for children and adolescents.
In order to lead your best life, water is the best choice to keep you healthy and active; so Live it up and Drink the Water!!
