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?

Healthy Fruit Kebabs

As part of Healthy Living Week the Ducklings made healthy fruit kebabs for snack time. They had to use their fine motor skills for helping to cut the fruit and their mathematical skills to make a repeating pattern with the fruit! They were very tasty indeed, especially after a morning of scootering!

Robins have a healthy breakfast!

As part of ’Health Week’ the children in Robins found out why we need to have breakfast. Looking at the healthy plate we looked at what we should include in our breakfast to make it healthy. We then had a taste test of different healthy breakfast choices. For a healthy breakfast we had a selection of; brown toast with unsalted butter and sugar free jam, crumpets, cornfalkes and wheaties with semi-skimmed milk and fat free stawberry, mixed berry and mango yogurts. YUM YUM!!
