The Kindergarten students of Ms Camille have been busy preparing a very healthy and colourful fruit salad. Fostering a healthy policy means that children learn by doing and not just by speaking about healthy eating. Hope you enjoyed your salad!!!
The Kindergarten students of Ms Joan prepared a very healthy soup at school. Student were given pumpkins which they had to cut into small pieces. The pumpkins pieces, together with other ingredients were placed in a pot. The pot was left to simmer for about 45 minutes. Once the soup was cooked, the students enjoyed a warm bowl of soup. Such activities promote learning by doing, while helping students learn to foster a love for healthy food.
The Kindergarten students of Ms Janice have been learning about the different parts that make up our faces… And what better way to learn other than by actually cook pizza faces? This activity helped students to learn vocabulary while learning how to handle cooking utensils. They also had an opportunity to be creative in their own way.
The K1.1 student of Ms Joanne and the K1.2 students of Ms Josianne prepared a delicious pizza. During such cookery lessons children learn about colours, textures and flavours, while at the same time enhancing their find motor skills… And who knows… maybe we have some future chefs among these little kids 🙂
Every educational institution tries its best to provide the learners with the most effective learning programme. However for this to become a reality, professionals need to further develop their skills through on-going training. The Kindergarten Assistants, together with their Learning Support Assistants had a hands-on session regarding literacy strategies and the use of story bags. The session was animated by the Head of Department, Ms Cristina, together with the Literacy Support Teachers, Ms Azzopardi and Ms Galea.
