Healthy Eating with John Scurr Primary School
Jamie Oliver recently had a TV programme about Healthy Food. He said that schools should cook healthy food. He said that most schools do not have healthy food.
We think that our school has lots of healthy things for the children to eat. We visited Sainsbury's to take pictures of healthy fruit and vegetables. At first they didn't let us in to photograph the fruit and vegetables. Then they said to call them, and talk to the manager, he said "Yes".
Find out why the cooks make Healthy food.
In our school lunch we always have salad with our meal and fruit for desert.
See what fruit the cooks like.

Apples are very good for you, they have vitamins. |

Peppers also have vitamins. |
Vitamins and Minerals
You should eat at least 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day, because
they are full of vitamins and minerals. Minerals and vitamins are the
things in food that you need to keep you healthy.
Helen (our sports teacher) talks about 5 portions of fruit
