This term our pupils are becoming food detectives, learning about hidden sugar and the importance of eating their 5 a Day.
This is part of Change4Life’s healthy eating campaign, called Sugar Smart, which focuses on the dangers of consuming too much sugar.
Pupils are tonight taking home a Change4Life’s Sugar Smart pack which contains a leaflet that gives hints and tips for how families can get Sugar Smart and eat less sugar. Change4Life have also launched a new Sugar Smart app to help families visualise the sugar lurking in foods – available to download for free from the App Store or Google Play. Further resources, including recipes and ideas for healthy swaps are also available here.
