Food Pyramid
The food pyramid helps us with our food choices. We should eat lots from the base of the pyramid and less from each section as the pyramid gets narrower. This will helps us stay healthy.

Nutritionist
Mark from Fresh Today and Elisha who is a nutritionist visited our school. They took feedback from the classes about food we like, changes we'd like and new items they will have. There will soon be partitions in the boxes to keep some foods separate and also changes to the pizzas. They reminded the children that meal options can be changed weekly and they are also trialling a monthly option that has included pesto pasta and chicken casserole.
