Encouraging good nutrition during the early years is of crucial importance. The eating patterns established in the first few years of life influence our health during later childhood and into adulthood. This week, we have been focusing on Healthy Living Week. The children have been inspired by the story ‘Kitchen Disco’ to make their very own fruit salads. We have been developing our fine and gross motor skills as we chopped fruit and, later, very much enjoyed eating it. The Pre-School children also went on an excursion to the sports field to find a smoothie bike that had been set up for the main school’s Sports Day events. We really enjoyed selecting fruit to try in our very own smoothies.
