Drinking water offers many benefits compared to sweetened drinks:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>No sugar crash:<\/strong>\u00a0This has a positive effect on concentration and learning.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Better for your health:<\/strong>\u00a0Water contains no sugar or other added substances, but it does contain minerals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Better for your teeth:<\/strong>\u00a0Sweet drinks cause tooth decay.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Positive effect on weight:<\/strong>\u00a0Water helps flush waste products out of the body.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cheaper:<\/strong>\u00a0Water is cheaper than drinks in cartons or bottles. You can save between 5 and 10 euros per child per week.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Easy:<\/strong>\u00a0Water comes out of the tap; you don\u2019t need to buy it or take it to school.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Better for the environment:<\/strong>\u00a0Empty packets and bottles end up in the rubbish.

Drinking water at school helps pupils to be healthier and has many other benefits. It improves concentration during lessons and reduces waste.<\/p>\n<h2>Convinced? Here\u2019s how your school can take part<\/h2>\n<p>Are you ready to drink more water at school? If so, sign your school up via the\u00a0<a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.formdesk.com\/apeldoorn\/apeldoorndrinktwater\">registration form<\/a>. The JOGG coordinator would be happy to visit to discuss with you how you can incorporate water drinking into your programme. This could be done, for example, by drinking water one day a week, every day, or by linking it to a mentor lesson focusing on health. It can be done very simply, for instance by carrying out a sugar cube test.<\/p>\n<h2>We\u2019re making it as easy as possible! Free water bottles!<\/h2>\n<p>If your school starts encouraging pupils to drink water, we\u2019ll make it as easy as possible with letters to parents, posters and reusable water bottles.
