On the 13th of October the Year 3 students of Ms Miranda Cauchi and Ms Sharon Calelja, together with their parents, were invited to attend to a Healthy Breakfast session at the Home Economics Centre in Birkirkara. 

The students, together with their parents, watched a short play about the importance of  a healthy breakfast conducted by the Home Economics teachers.  A meeting followed for parents only.  In the meantime students were given a healthy cereal for breakfast.  Some students also added fresh fruit with their cereal. 

An important session was held for the students.  Among other things, students were introduced to the healthy plate, talked about table manners and other healthy habits and they also learned how to check the amount of sugar each packet contains by checking the nutrition label (e.g. less than 15g sugar per 100g).  Students enjoyed singing, dancing and playing the educational games.

As a success criteria students were asked to draw or write some sentences about the outing.  From their work one can clearly see that students learned a lot during this outing whilst having lots of fun.
