I spotted this whilst on lunch time duty today.  Some pretty talented kids!

Thank you Dr Freudenberg!

A huge thank you to Stefan for coming in to class and enlightening rooms 5 and 6 on the benefits of a eating the right foods and the consequences of a poor diet.  As you can see the children were engrossed!  We are so lucky to have so many supportive parents.

Foodstuffs Day 3

A massive thanks to our parent helpers for helping to transport us to and from PAK'nSAVE and for supporting the groups so very well during the visit.  Also, thanks to our connections at the store for being such excellent hosts and welcoming us in.  There is nothing quite like the learning that takes place in the real world!

Foodstuffs - Day 2

Thanks again today to Andy for an eye opening look at food labelling. We spent an hour comparing cereals and exploring recommended guidelines on sugar, fat, salt and fibre intake. We also looked at how much sugar there is in a range of drinks: from water to milk to v and coke! A very interesting session.

Andrea from Foodstuffs!

A great big thank you to Andy, a food nutritionist from Foodstuffs who has travelled from Auckland to work with us this week. Today we looked at the food pyramid. On Wednesday we will be looking at reading food labels and sugar in drinks. On Thursday we will be taking our new found knowledge to PAK'nSAVE where we will be investigating some common food products.

Here are some photos from today's session.
