Healthy Eating

This term we have been lucky to be part of the Ministry of Health and Education's lunch in schools program. Every day we have a lunch delivered for every student at St Bernadette's. The lunches provided are very healthy and the menu provides us with a variety of delicious food.  It has been great to see everyone trying new things and learning to enjoy them. As part of our topic work were have completed lessons and activities based on the theme healthy Heart, Body, and Mind. At the start of the unit, the learning has been around getting to know each other, appreciating each other's strengths and differences, and how we can work as a team in Room 3 and value those strengths and differences. We have also been learning how to grow our own healthy food and have planted lots of fruit and vegetables in our school garden. Some of the food is now ready to harvest and we have been using it to make soups and salads.
