Eat Great and Activate Program

This past year Bridging the Gap launched a new component to the Bridging After School and Summer Program called Eat Great and Activate. This element is set out to encourage good nutrition and physical fitness for our participants.

All participants receive a healthy, nutritious snack and/or meal during program time. The participants are involved in baking/cooking classes and receive nutrition instructions. This program has also incorporated a fitness regime, which encourages children to participate in planned physical activities while having fun.  The focus is non-competitive and allows children to progress at their own pace while improving their self-esteem and endurance.
