Winning Happily at Wellness
The Value of Wellness
Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. Wellness is more than being free from illness; it is a dynamic process of change and growth. Reference: Student Health and Counseling Services
Community is an interacting population of various kinds of individuals in a common location. In Imus National High School, not just a group of teachers, employees, and staffs but as a family, with a common goal of winning together ,we want our members to be physically fit and enjoy the chance of doing physical activities apart from what they usually do during the working week.
Working takes up a majority of our time during the week, so the way we feel about our work contributes to our overall well-being.

Design
Our wellness activities will be designed with employee health in mind. It won’t be unpleasant, too time-consuming or require heavy spending by our employees. Activities will be held during the days and time convenient for the employees such as Saturdays and Sundays. We may invite instructors, coaches, health education lecturers and sponsors. We always welcome ideas and suggestions for our employee wellness community.
