What can Teachers do…

During high-temptation seasons like Easter, Halloween, and Christmas, avoid handing out chocolate or sweets as rewards. They get loads already!

Fill the classroom reward box with things like erasers, stickers, pencils, hair clips.

Think about exploring food in the classroom:

• Growing some easy veg: try out basil or mint, or salad leaves. Make sure to smell them and taste them- a little sprig of mint in water is delicious

• Eating a rainbow: Challenge the class to bring in fruits and veggies of different colours each week.

• Exploring the food pyramid (or plate): Use a hands-on display or create paper plate collages showing the main food groups, so they can build balanced-meal visuals.
