Take children for hour's exercise daily during holiday, parents told

Sam Jones The Guardian, Thursday December 27, 2007

Children need to be dragged away from the television over the Christmas holidays and taken outside for an hour's exercise a day, the government will tell parents today. Ministers fear that the festive break, which children often spend hunched over the games console eating sweets, can encourage unhealthy behaviour.

The children's minister, Kevin Brennan, and the health minister, Dawn Primarolo, want families to spend "quality time" together by going for walks in the fresh air. "It is tempting to stay in, turn on the telly and tuck into a family box of chocolates during this time of year," said Brennan. "But why not take part as a family in outdoor activities like going for a walk in the park or a trip to the leisure centre?

"These types of activities can make 60 minutes of exercise a day fly by and help maintain the effort schools make with children during term time."

Primarolo said the latest advice was that children need an hour's "moderate" exercise every day. "At least twice a week this should include activities to improve bone health, muscle strength and flexibility," she said.

"The long-term ambition is that by 2010 all children will be able to spend four hours each week on sport. This will be made up of at least two hours of high-quality PE and sport at school and two to three hours of sport beyond the school day."

Earlier this month, the government unveiled its children's plan, which aims to dramatically reduce illiteracy and antisocial behaviour and eradicate child poverty by 2020. Under the plan, which sets 10 targets for the next 13 years, ministers promise to introduce a new measure of children's wellbeing, improve skills at the start of primary and then secondary school, reduce obesity, end child poverty and "significantly reduce" the number of children convicted of criminal offences.

By 2020, 90% will be expected to achieve five A* to C GCSEs, while in the first year of school 90% will be expected to be doing well in all developmental areas.

Launching the 170-page plan, the secretary of state for children, schools and families, Ed Balls, said he wanted to make Britain "the best place in the world for our children to grow up in". The plan was the government's response to critical reports on British childhood by Unicef and others. Under the scheme, £385m will be spent on new playgrounds and youth centres in every neighbourhood, as well as personal tutors and one-to-one classes to help poorly-performing pupils.

Je suis passée ce matin sur un extrait d'un roman: "a year in the merde", au début je me suis demandé ce que j'allais bien pouvoir raconter mais en fait les idées sont venu petit à petit. je me suis forcée à ne pas rédiger mes phrases sur le brouillon pour ne pas lire et donc tenir mes 5 minutes^^

au niveau de l'entretien je pense avoir fait des erreurs de grammaire bien sûr mais j'ai bien tenu la conversation, jury très sympa et souriant !! bref plutôt satisfaite de moi ^^

[Langolia]

Je suis passée ce matin.

Theme : apprentissage d'une langue etrangere.

Peu de questions sur le texte, dont une ou je me suis litteralement vautrée !!! J'ai admis meme que j'avais fait un contre-sens enfin bref...

La conversation a vite tourné sur de la culture générale et sur moi (les langues que je parle, les pays que j ai visité, les films que je regarde...)

j'ai eu le jury 17 : une femme blonde cheveux courts et un homme crane rasé. Quelqu'un d'autre a eu ce jury, quelles sont vos impressiosn ?

La description ne me dit plus rien mais oui j'ai eu aussi le jury 17^^ comme dit précédemment je les ai trouvé très souriant, très gentils !

pas toi ?

[katag3na]

J'ai eu le même sujet que Langolia, sur les lenteurs de l'administration française... Sujet plutôt bizarre en effet, pour ma part l'entretien a tourné autour de la culture britannique et notamment de la nourriture, comme c'était mon ouverture.

J'ai eu le jury 9, un homme assez âgé et une femme jeune, très souriants tous deux.

Mon texte en anglais, cet aprem 13 heures 30:

"An investigation by BBC East has revealed the huge proportion of cases of psychosis involving young people who have been using cannabis.

Cambridgeshire-based medical unit, Cameo, which specialises in helping people aged between 17 and 35 who are suffering from the early stages of psychosis, has said about 80% of its clients are heavy cannabis users.

The project has had 75 referrals for the south of the county this year and its new office in Peterborough has had 39 referrals since September.

Prof Peter Jones, Cameo's co-director, told the BBC: "We found that when we looked at 100 consecutive young adults coming to the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Trust first episode psychosis service, 80% were either dependent on cannabis or using it heavily."

Violent incidents

He has said that the proportion of his patients who are chronic cannabis users has increased in the last ten years, and that "it's now exceptional if people aren't using cannabis".

The problems of cannabis-linked psychosis are also being felt in the criminal justice system in Cambridgeshire.

There were one or two people who became so psychotic they didn't actually realise what they were doing

Phil Estell, Hostel manager

Andy Cave, one of only two specialist mental health lawyers in the county, said almost all his young clients had fallen foul of the law because of psychotic episodes caused by cannabis.

"Some people using cannabis for a long time and see no ill effect - some people can use cannabis once and go into a mental health psychosis which could land them in a very serious situation in court, or, on many occasions lead them to an admission to a hospital and that admission has to be compulsory, and they are detained," he said.

In Peterborough, some community workers believe that a particularly strong strain of the drug may be behind a recent spate of violent incidents.

Staff at the Peterborough Foyer, homeless hostel, said in the last month at least 10 of its 50 clients suddenly started to suffer from hallucinations and became aggressive. All had been smoking cannabis. "

Jury 12, deux messieurs très gentils qui avait l'air de comprendre ce que je racontais. On a plaisanté et bien discuté du texte, du métier de PE et de cinéma. Aucun avis sur la note mais jury charmant qui fait très bien son métier.

coucou!

je suis passée hier en anglais, sur les inégalités entre ls filles et ls garçons dans certains pays! je ne sais pas trop quoi penser de ma prestation, car moi j'ai généralisé ça aussi entre les inégalités hommes femmes ect...

je suis par contre assez dégoutée de moi, car mon prof d'iufm m'a dit que j'étais capable d'avoir au-dessus de 15 (et c'est vrai!), mais là je ne sais pas ce qui m'a pris, j'ai eu du mal à parlerr j'ai pas arréter de confondre chil et children woman et women du coup j'ai fait plein de fautes de grammaire, mais aussi de conjugaison, je demandais en anglais des mots aux jury, ils ne voulaient pas me le donner, ils me faisaient comprendre que je devais me démerder!! pfffffffff

Puis au bout d'un moment le jury m'a dit qu'en Inde les hommes et les femmes n'avaient pas les mêmes droits, et j'ai soutenu que si!! alors je me suis rattrapée en disant que normalement ils devraient avoir les mêmes droits, mais que en effet, ce n'est pas le cas!

et le pire de tout, c'est quand le jury s'est moqué de mon accent!!!

j'ai dit "they have to work", et le jury ah fait walk? it's strange!!

bonnes vacances à tous et toutes

Bonsoir, je suis passée ce matin avec le jury n°8. Le sujet portait sur la façon dont sont vus les étrangers en GB. Le jury était plutôt sympa (un homme et une femme), ils m'ont posé quelques questions d'ordre général sur le texte puis sur mes hobbies, la musique que j'écoute, les raisons pour lesquelles je veux devenir PE ... Lorsque je ne comprenais pas, je leur demandais de répéter, mais en général ce qu'ils disaient était compréhensible : vocabulaire simple et ils ne parlaient pas trop vite (et pourtant mon niveau n'est pas élevé, au contraire!) et lorsque je n'ai vraiment pas compris une de leur question, ils m'ont aidé en français.

Voilà...

C'est terminé! Voici les vacances! Si vous avez des questions, n'hésitez pas à me les poser!

Je viens de retrouver mon texte sur internet:

Leading article: The horror story that turned out to be a myth

Thursday, 17 April 2008

It is not difficult to find some horror story about a crime perpetrated by a foreigner in Britain. Indeed, some parts of the media seem to specialise in it. So it is good to have the wherewithal to stand back and consider the wider context. That was provided to the Home Secretary yesterday by a wide-ranging study from the Association of Chief Police Officers on crime levels among immigrants to the UK from eastern Europe in recent years. The report found that, contrary to the alarmist headlines, the offending rates among Polish, Slovak, Lithuanian, Romanian and Bulgarian incomers are pretty much in line with the rest of the population. Another myth bites the dust.

There are problems, of course. It found that the rapid influx of foreign workers had caused blips both in types of crimes and in their varying geographical impact. Poles, who make up than half of the incomers, have a higher rate of drink-driving offences. There have been Romanian gangs, particularly in London, using children for petty robberies in a way which would have been unsurprising to Charles Dickens but which particularly shocks modern English sensibilities. And there have been increases in sex trafficking, worker exploitation and other forms of modern-day slavery, among Britain's new eastern European communities.

Some areas suffer more than others, in ways which upset our stereotypes. London is no longer the top destination for migrant workers. Most of the mass arrival has been absorbed into farm work in areas like south-west England and East Anglia – parts of the country unused to large-scale immigration. Which is why last year it was the chief constable of Cambridgeshire who sparked controversy by claiming the sudden inflow of east Europeans had led to community tensions.

But this new report contextualises all that. Part of the increased burden placed upon police in such areas is a significant rise in the budget for interpreters, not because the eastern Europeans are all offenders but because they are also victims and witnesses of crime. It is also because, in the local psyche, rumour often trumps mere fact; prejudices, resentments and misunderstandings fuel tensions – which police have had to be proactive in resolving and which make investigations more complex.

The cold facts are that Britain has accommodated this huge influx with comparatively few real, as distinct from perceived, problems – and crime has actually fallen in England and Wales by 9 per cent in the past recorded year. The evidence just does not support wild theories of a massive crime-wave generated through migration.

The myths around immigration crumble when exposed to the light of day. Few of the incomers sponge on the state; as many as 97 per cent of registered immigrant workers have full-time jobs; the number on benefits is very low. Immigration is good for us.Migrants do jobs that many Britons turn down. They perform vital tasks in the public services. The economy grows faster because of their contribution. Inflation and interest rates are kept down.

Sainsbury's have even suggested that the strong work-ethic of foreign-born workers rubs off on the British-born staff. And because, as yesterday's police report pointed out, many migrant workers are young professionals with qualifications who come here to earn money and then return home, the tax they pay helps to defuse the UK's pensions time-bomb because they are not staying to grow old and draw pensions themselves. Then there are all the benefits of innovation and diversity and other fruits of immigration that cannot be measured.

All of this does not, of course, suit those politicians who see advantage in demonising the foreigner. But then facts rarely do.

Voilà... si ça peut aider quelqu'un...
