Primary 5’s enjoyed taking part in the Lidl Health Factor on Tuesday. On the Lidl Bus they chose 3 different fruits to put in their smoothies and found out that they should only have 200ml of fruit juice or smoothie a day as fruit contains natural sugars. The children also took part in racing games measuring their heart rate before and after the races. We also learnt that we should be doing an hour of exercise a day and eating healthy foods such as fruit and vegetables. Remember to use your £2 voucher to buy some fruit or vegetables and your recipe books to cook some delicious and healthy food!

As part of the ‘Ready, Steady, Cook Challenge’, P6/7 put their culinary skills to the test today with a potato, onion and bacon bake.  The class managed to polish off their portions afterwards so that was a good sign!
