You could be in with a chance to win a £100 gift voucher for Health Edco.
Who are Health Edco?
We met Health Edco for the first time at the Health & Wellbeing Exhibition back in November and were really impressed with the range of cool (and helpful!) PSHE classroom tools they offered. We were particularly affected by these Drunk & Dangerous Glasses (it was impossible to walk in a straight line with these on) and seeing just how much tar builds up in a smoker’s lungs in one year (Tobacco Health Package) – not pleasant!
So take 5 minutes out of your day for some Growing Pains Word Search fun and you and your students could be enjoying some fantastic Health Edco resources in the new school term:
Competition guidelines:
- Download and print the word search
- Complete and submit to us by Friday 2nd July

2. Match ‘em up
A fun Match the Movie activity! See if you can tell which letter question kicks off which movie!
Hopefully it’s easy enough but we’ve provided an example to get you started. Hint: watching the Spotlights movies should help you along nicely.
3. Dear Tim & Moby
At BrainPOP UK we appreciate how difficult growing up can be – after all, we’ve all done it (well, most of us!) – and adolescence can be such a confusing time. So it’s good that Tim & Moby pride themselves on answering tricky questions.
If you have a question you’d like answered, here’s the letter template for you to download: Dear Tim & Moby letter.
Fill it out, send to us and we’ll make sure Tim & Moby get back to you.
Think of Tim & Moby as your own personal Growing Pains Agony Uncle and, er… Agony Robot?
You can also ask Tim & Moby a question here.
