Back to School with Dad
 

Date: January 4 – 8, 2010 To encourage men with school-going children to be more actively engaged in their children’s school-life and educational experience. Futher to that, we want to spur fathers to kick off your childs day with a healthy breakfast and a walk from the nearest MRT station, this will add into their 60min of physical activity a day for a healthy mind and body. CFF inaugurated this initiative in 2007. Once again in early 2010, CFF will be sounding the call, for all fathers to accompany their children to school at least once during the first week of a fresh school year.
 
We want to encourage schools to promote this event as a realtionship building and healthy movement to motivate the fathers to step up and play an integral part of their childrens education life. We are launching a contest to reward Schools and fathers that have shown their support in this initiative.
