Participants will be children entering Grade 3 in 2010 at one of the 22 randomly selected Primary Schools in Metropolitan Melbourne where the study will be conducted.
On ethical grounds, there will be no exclusion criteria for participants; however, potential confounders will be assessed using parent report of their child’s health.
Potential participant Primary Schools will undergo an audit of current policies and strategies targeted at physical activity and sedentary behaviour and those that already have relevant action plans or programs in place will be excluded.
