Just like a car needs petrol to help it run, our bodies too need proper nutrition to function optimally, especially if it is growing and developing rapidly.
Our curriculum refers to the Australian Dietary Guidelines to help students understand the amounts and kinds of foods we need to eat for health and wellbeing.
Each day our students have what we refer to as a ‘Brain Break’ where they snack on pieces of fresh fruits or vegetables, part way through the morning program. We also encourage each child to have their water bottle available on their desk, to stay hydrated throughout the day.
