A Healthy Diet!

We have been learning about the importance of a healthy diet and what foods we need to eat more of. We enjoyed making milk shakes by carefully cutting up fruit with sharp knives and then mixing it with milk and fromage frais- they were delicious!Would you like the recipe to make at home?

Ingredients:
1 cup of milk
A tablespoon of fromage frais or fruit yoghurt
A tablespoon of fruit (we used strawberries/bananas)
Method:
1.Wash and chop the fruit
2.Put all the ingredients in a blender
3.Blend
4.Enjoy!

On Friday we brought our teddies and cuddly toys to school for a healthy eating picnic. What fun! Lots of lovely food (fruit, hummas and carrot and cucumber sticks to dip, cheese, fromage frais, sandwiches, all washed down with a cup of cold water), parachute and ball games, space to run and roll around enjoying the fresh air! We enjoy a healthy lifestyle!

Healthy School week was fun!

Monday morning, bright and early we were the first class out to take part in the school marathon. We all completed 3 laps of our big school field!!!

Healthy Week at Ffynnon Taf!

This week is 'Healthy Week' at Ffynnon Taf Primary and our Early Years children will be taking part along with the rest of the school. We will be learning all about what makes a 'healthy lunchbox' and tasting a selection of healthy foods. The children will be making banana or strawberry milkshakes and of course taking part in our mini-marathon (don't forget to collect your sponsors!). On Friday the children are able to invite their favourite cuddly toy for our healthy eating teddy bear's picnic!

They're growing!!!!!!!!

The pupils have been very excited this week as some of our bean stalks have started to grow. The french beans were the first to sprout and are now several inches tall with leaves. After a few anxious days, worrying that their beans weren't going to grow, pupils have been breathing a sigh of relief as the broad beans and runner beans are just beginning to break the surface of the soil.

Growing Beanstalk

This week we are looking at beans: runner beans, broad beans and french beans. The children have been observing differences between the beans, sorting them and finally planting them. Pupils will be watering them and watching them grow. Hopefully they will all have a beanstalk to take home in a few weeks time to plant in their own gardens.
