As part of our mission to achieve our Eco-Schools Silver Award, we are encouraging everyone in school to think about making better food choices, starting with Healthy Breaks. Many children already bring or buy a healthy break and those who don't are being encouraged with the implementation of a new reward system. Children will receive a tick each day they have a healthy break and if they have 5 ticks at the end of the week, will receive a "healthy" sticker.
This system is being trialed with Year 2 at the moment and will soon be rolled out to Year 1 and Year 3. Eco-committee are in the process of coming up with an incentive for Key Stage 2. We will keep you updated on our progress.
Eco-Club decided that the following items are classed as "healthy" for break
- Fruit/vegetables
- Dairy products such as plain yogurt/cheese
- Plain bread based products
- Milk/water/sugar free diluting juice
