Abstract

Our children are born, grow and develop alongside his family, with a strong influence of the community, what makes you different from the other beings of nature that have predefined conservation instincts and fend for themselves. The infant's growth and development is the result of a family-school combination, in these environments learn and develop the knowledge and skills that will serve the rest of his life. A significant portion of the time the child spends on their education, living day to day with other children and teachers, besides interacting with the school environment. In this coexistence are many problems related to health, such as nutritional disorders, hygiene, reproductive health, mental health and others. On this basis, it was considered important to work in one of the most representative of the Canton schools Gualaceo school as Brazil, educational center that is part of the network of health promoting schools, conducting a participatory health diagnosis, then develop a six-month plan that includes the implementation of training issues and development of healthy environments. One of the strengths of this approach is interdisciplinary and interagency work done with all those involved in school health.
