Healthy Living Week

This week has been Healthy Living Week in school were we have taken part in lots of activities. We have had a fun time on our scooters were we learned some stunts. We have designed and priced up our own scooters and we have learned about different food groups and how eating the right food and drink keeps our bodies fit and healthy.  We did a sponsored circuit training event which raised money for the Nepal Earthquake appeal and we also had a fantastic afternoon at our Sports Day, where the sun shone beautifully.  Finally we planned, created and evaluated a game using a set amount of equipment and we looked at designing our own sports kit.

Healthy Living Week

On Wednesday the children in Robins researched a healthy breakfast. We found out the meaning of 'breakfast', the importance of having breakfast, how breakfast helps us and the different nutrients that we can include in our breakfast. We also looked at the healthy plate to help us choose what we can eat and drink to make a breakfast healthy. We then taste tested different healthy breakfast options...YUM YUM!!!

Robins have a healthy breakfast!

What healthy breakfast would you choose?
The children in Robins collected data from the teachers to find out what healthy breakfast they would choose to eat. The children created a variety of healthy breakfast options in groups. These included; yogurt with berries and a glass of fresh orange juice, baked beans on seeded brown toast with apple juice and corn flakes with semi-skimmed milk, a banana and a gladd of water. The children then put their options into a tally chart and went to collect the information from the teachers. When the children had collected their information they then answered questions about what they had found out. Which is the most popular healthy choice? Which option was the least healthy?

As part of Healthy Living Week the children had 'Scooter Day'. The children were very excitied to ride their scooters at break time and to learn new skills and tricks during the scooter lesson.
