Welcome to the Wellness Committee!

Re-established in January 2018, our mission is to bring health and wellness initiatives to the PS/IS187 community. Join us today!

In the spring of 2018, we were thrilled to bring back KidFit, a popular free community even, and provide an opportunity for kids and their families to discover fun and engaging ways to be healthier. We were thrilled to see the event grow even stronger the following year! Over 150 kids and their families attended KidFit 2019 to learn about fun ways to stay active and healthy all year round. 

In 2019, we were also able to expand sports opportunities available to the PS/IS187 students by introducing two new off-site fee-based programs: K-4 Soccer and 4-7 Basketball. At the end of the school year, we also introduced K-8 Tennis. Our goal is to continue to explore additional programming options to promote health and wellness to the PS187 community. 

​We are also focused on making helpful wellness resources available to students, and grown-ups, and continuing to advocate for healthier nutrition and activities at the school. 

Join us! Sign up for our mailing list to stay in the loop and be a part of the conversation. Or, better yet, volunteer to join the committee and take a leadership role in bringing wellness initiatives to PS187. 

Here is to wellness!
