Heart Heroes Programmes for Schools

Many risk factors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) such as high blood pressure (BP), obesity, lack of exercise and diabetes begin developing during childhood. Helping children build heart-healthy habits early plays a key role in preventing these risks at a later stage of their lives. 

We believe that empowering the young with practical, age-appropriate heart health knowledge is essential to long-term prevention. Through Heart Heroes Programmes, we support schools by spreading heart health knowledge in simple, relevant and actionable ways. 

Every school may choose one of the following programmes annually: 

  • Blood Pressure Initiative @ Schools (class-based, hands-on learning) 
  • Heart Health Booth (self-facilitated awareness booth) 
  • Heart Heroes Assembly Talk (whole-school engagement) 
  • Heart Health Advocates (Secondary school – tertiary level) 

All programmes share the same core objectives towards preventing cardiovascular diseases. To ensure fair access, schools may register for one programme type per year. 

Optional Extension for School Staff: Staff Outreach Programme* 

Objective:  

To educate and equip school staff with the essential knowledge of blood pressure monitoring and practical tips to maintain a healthy heart.  

Schools that enrol for a student programme may also extend heart health education to their staff members through either of the following: 

  1. BP Initiative @ Staff (min. 20 pax)
  2. BP Awareness Booth for Staff (self-facilitated)

Your school will be eligible for up to 3 complimentary blood pressure monitors, when you enrol for any of the above programmes, subject to availability.  

*Terms and conditions apply. 

Optional Extension for Families: Family Outreach @ BP Initiative 

Objective:
To encourage students to take an active role as heart health ambassadors by promoting blood pressure awareness and healthy habits within their families. 

Schools that enrol for the BP Initiative @ Schools may also extend learning beyond the classroom through the following: 

  1. Family Outreach (Home Loaning Programme)
    Students who have undergone the BP Initiative @ Schools programme may bring a blood pressure monitor home for a day to encourage family members to check their blood pressure and engage them in heart health conversations. 

Participation in this extension allows students to put what they have learnt to use in their daily life.
