Learning
About Nutrition
On Tuesday Room 12 went to New World to look at Nutrition tables and check
out the nutrition guidelines to see how healthy they really are with
Marewa the Nutritionist.
First we all walked over to the Interview room in the Office and it was as
clean as a whistle inside the interview room and then the first group Tahi went
and the rest of us played I spy.
Next Mrs Dallas came back to pick my group up Toru and another group
Rima. When we got to the supermarket we were each given a sheet to record our
findings on.
Then my group split into two groups. It was the Boys in one group;
Henare, Mason and I and a Girl group; Ella and Iliili. My group started with Snacks and we chose
Whole Grain Crackers for our Healthy Snack and Round Wine Biscuits for our
Occasional Snack.
Next we found the nutritional information for Bread, Milk and Dairy
Products, Drinks and Breakfast Cereals.
Finally we were all finished and my group was finished first. Once we
were all sitting on the Window Sill we each got given a green Lunch Box with
fruit on the top sticker and our own class also got a $60 coupon for a healthy lunch.
It was really fun going through the supermarket and learning about
nutrition, nutrition tables and guidelines. Most of all I hope I get to
learn more about nutrition, because I enjoy it.
