The boys and girls in this leadership group are planning a Fairtrade event for parents, carers and members of the school and extended community to attend and enjoy. Some children created invitations while others baked Fairtrade banana loaves and carrot cakes which will be frozen and stored until the event!

P4 Sugar Rush!

Today, Primary 4 found out all about sugar.

We watched an informative video which told us all about the affect sugar can have on our bodies and learned that growing children should have no more than 16 grams of sugar per day.  We thought back to what we had eaten over the past 24 hours and were surprised to discover that many of us were over that limit! Take a look at some of your favourite treats and read the sugar content – you may get a shock!
