Healthy Harold

Wowwwww!! Have just returned to the keyboard stunned.

An unexpected knock on the door to reveal a canvasser BUT he was a young guy promoting awareness of the Healthy Harold drug program in schools.

• NO request for donations.

• Said I loved HH from my teaching days he replied he was a kinaesthetic learner and had loved him too ... and that the program has extended into high schools.

• Asked him who was funding it these days. He said government bodies had pulled funding.

• He wished me a good day and went on his way.

Still stunned ... my very best wishes to the Life Education Program.

Just brilliant.

Long may it continue ...

FOR A SAFER, SMARTER LIFE as Harold says.

Is this a duplication of what is getting covered in schools now ?

Life Education has been around for 35 years and is now the largest non-government provider of drug and health education, operating in all States and Territories  according to their site.

It was used as part of the Health Program in all the primary schools where I taught in NSW going back over 25 years that I can remember. Kids responded really well to it, very good presentations.
