As a representative of the student council to write a report about some of the problems that occur that prevent the student from encouraging a healthy lifestyle. We would like to asked the principal to make a changes to solve the problems. Our school’s canteen have sells a lot of unhealthy meals like junk foods and frizzy drinks. We afraid if this problem continues, the student might having high cholesterol. In terms of curriculum, most of the student are not interested to participate in any sports game during the sport day. They preferred to sit down watching or stay at home. If this continues to happen, the sport day will no longer be held. In order solve the problems above, the principal should give a notice to the school’s canteen to sell more healthy food than unhealthy food. With that, the student could control their habit in eating the unhealthy food. The sport field should be upgraded to make the student feel comfortable to do their sport. More over, the school should organize more interesting curriculum that most people like. With the changes I have mentioned above, it could help the student to keep healthy and fit and keep doing what they are doing in school as their everyday routine wherever they go. Hopefully, I have given enough information to help the school to encourage a healthy lifestyle and the changes could be made as soon as possible.
