At BC Academy, we believe that nurturing future-ready learners begins with a strong foundation in health and well-being. Nutrition is more than sustenance—it is a cornerstone of physical vitality, emotional stability, and academic readiness. Rooted in our vision to empower learners to lead with purpose, and our mission to inspire, innovate, and impact, our approach to health and nutrition promotes lifelong positive habits that enable every learner to thrive.
In our values-driven environment, healthy eating supports every child’s right to belong to a safe, inclusive community; to be challenged to make informed, balanced choices; and to achieve optimal well-being and learning outcomes. Staff and parents serve as role models, guiding children in developing a mindful and respectful relationship with food.

Together, we are building a generation of healthy, informed, and resilient global citizens—equipped to make purposeful choices for themselves and their communities.
For any questions or individual concerns, our school clinic and teaching team are always available to support your child’s needs.
