The area is due to become a new NHS Health Town. It will be one of only 10 towns in the country and the only one in London. Pupils were questioned about health and fitness and how healthy they though the area was. They were then asked what they think could be changed to make the area even more healthy and enjoyable in the future. Ideas ranged from less fast food restaurants, to more gyms and sporting facilities and safer parks. The interview was broadcast live on the Vanessa Feltz show at 7:15 and 8:15am and will be online to listen to again. ![](https://riverside-secondary.com/images/304a.jpg) [ Essex Cross Country Championships](https://riverside-secondary.com/news/2016-02-26-essex-cross-country-championships) [GET SAFE, GET SMART, GET SOCIAL ](https://riverside-secondary.com/news/2016-03-09-get-safe-get-smart-get-social) ![Riverside Secondary School](https://files.schudio.com/riverside-secondary-school/images/logo/Logo_Footer.png) ### Riverside Secondary School Renwick Road Barking IG11 0FU 0203 946 5888 ### Social Media - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/riverside_campus/) [![Partnership Learning](https://files.schudio.com/riverside-secondary-school/images/logo/AAAPartnership-Learning_white.png)](https://partnershiplearning.com) © Copyright 2026 Riverside Secondary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://riverside-secondary.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
