“Banks remain committed to the health of our consumers and programmes or concepts that promote health in communities and those that we support and that is why Coca Cola has come onboard as the main sponsor of this programme.
“We cannot undervalue programmes such as these and what the type of interaction does and we must congratulate the Ministry of Education on this effort,” Joao stated at the launching.
Chief Education Officer (CEO) of the Ministry of Education, Olato Sam was grateful to Banks DIH for their support towards the programme.
“All of these things (the ‘Skip be fit’ programme) complement the education process, we started it last year in Region 10and that was the impetus to take it nationally and we must thank Banks,” Sam stated.
