Today Amy and Bronagh from the Dairy Council came to school to talk to our P5 - P7 children about making wise food choices and also about keeping fit.

The children sorted foods into the five main food groups.  They also learnt a rap to help them to remember the key messages to 'Looking Good and Feeling Great'

They used 'lifestyle skills' to help get the balance right. A healthy life style is a balance between the right foods and the right amount of exercise.

This presentation taught the children about -

  • Having a healthy, balanced diet.
  • Understanding why we need to eat some dairy foods.

M ove your body to keep fit.
