Healthy eating in Te Ara Toru

Welcome back to another educational and inspiring few weeks in our junior classroom!

We've been exploring healthy easting and what that means and what it looks like.
We looked at our lunches and made some fruit kebabs in our discovery time last week. Room 3 tried some new fruits such as Mangoes and Permissions- they were really yummy! 







Also, as part of our healthy eating programme, we got to go and visit Harold the Giraffe in the Life Education truck. We learnt about the food pyramid, what foods are healthy to eat and what are just "sometimes" foods. We got to look at Tam, a body where we took turns at being Doctors and found out where important parts on our body live. 

"I liked the food pyramid!" Lennon.
"I liked watching the video on Jacko's party" Ava.
"I liked when Harold was being cheeky" Leighton.
"I liked that we could talk to Harold on the TV" Jordan.
"I liked putting the food on the food pyramid and Tam" Bella.
