We are healthy!
Today, Year 6 had a dietitian come and visit our school to give a talk on healthy eating. The talk helped us to understand more about our current science topic 'Our Body'. We learnt all sorts about how to keep healthy and what risks and dangers come with not living a healthy lifestyle. After the talk we even got to try lots of healthy snacks such as unflavoured popcorn mixed with raisins, fruit infused water and natural yoghurt with strawberries. We also found out how much sugar we should have a day and how much sugar can be found in chocolate bars, biscuits and fizzy drinks. A bottle of coke contains 16 teaspoons, can you believe it!? That's our entire recommended sugar intake for 4 days in one short drink! We'd really like to thank Miss Kenney for coming to visit us, it's definitely got us thinking about what we put in our bodies!
