Copyright: MHH / Karin Kaiser. Primary schools around Hanover, Wolfsburg, Gifhorn and Helmstedt start with the exercise programme for the sustainable promotion of children's health 02. After a long, patient wait, the "REBIRTH active school" exercise programme for the sustainable promotion of children's health can finally be launched. The comprehensive exercise programme for everyday school life was developed at the Hannover Medical School (MHH) and extensively tested in a pilot study. However, the pandemic threw a spanner in the works of the planned launch at several primary schools. In the "REBIRTH active school" physical activity programme, the pupils receive playful physical activity units spread over the entire school day in the form of threeto five-minute sequences during lessons, as well as an early morning and afternoon sports programme. The study showed significant improvements in physical health and performance as well as a decrease in risk factors for cardiovascular diseases among the participating primary school students.
