On Wednesday 7th December, Jennifer from Quality Meats Scotland came to visit the P6s and P7s to tell us about food nutrition.

She told us about the Eatwell Guide, different food groups and all the important vitamins and minerals that we get from food.

Then she told us about Scotch Assured Meat and what the labels we see on packaging really mean.  When we see ‘Scotch Beef’ on meat packets in butchers and supermarkets, that doesn’t just mean the cows it came from are from Scotland, it also means that those animals were treated fairly.

Finally, she taught us how to make fajitas using fresh ingredients.  Some lucky people in the class got chosen to help prepare the food but we all got to taste the end result!  It was delicious!
