Talbot is a Healthy School!

Talbot recently received recognition as a Healthy School and we are very proud of the award.

Last year we focused on physical activity and participated in Super Schools, Jump Rope and conducted our own physical fitness programme amongst other things.

This year we have targeted healthy eating and through P.S.H.E lessons hope to promote greater awareness of healthy choices. We are continuing to stress the value of drinking water and have recently installed a number of mains fed water coolers and provided pupils with free water bottles.

We intend to implement a new Sex and Relationships scheme of work this year and are working closely with Jan Lever, Poole’s P.S.H.E. adviser, to develop this and keep parents informed.


Every year the whole school gets involved in the Operation Christmas Child charity. Here are some of the presents and gifts we have collected this year:

In this photograph the swimming pool is clearly visible with its white roof. The band room and changing rooms can be seen adjacent to the car park. Today, only 2 of the mobile classroom remain, and the eastern side of the school is now dominated by the 1999 extension.
