Students in Ms. Royal's Health and PE class are working on describing the relationship between health and wellness. They were asked to find various ways to describe the three categories of the health triangle (social health, physical health and mental/emotional health) proving the point that all aspects of our life and the world around us can be traced back to one of the three areas of health and well-being.
