More than thirty organizations from across Canada came together declaring April 27, 2009 the first national Healthy Schools Day in Canada – Journée des écoles saines du Canada to focus on indoor environments such as indoor air quality in schools across Canada.
The purpose of the day will be to foster improvements, celebrate successes, and create projects that make indoor environments of new and existing schools the best they can be. Each year, Canadians will be encouraged to develop projects big or small to celebrate Healthy Schools Day in Canada and improve school indoor environments.
Healthy Schools Day in Canada is for all Canadians!
Healthy Schools Day in Canada – Journée des écoles saines du Canada will give citizens, students, teachers, parents, organizations, school boards, and all Canadians, an opportunity to focus on school buildings’ indoor environment quality to benefit the health and learning ability of our country’s school children and protect the health of workers in Canadian Schools.
