Know what you're eating

The Netherlands Nutrition Centre offers a free teaching pack on nutrition. What exactly is healthy eating? And how can you eat in a way that’s good for the environment? How can you resist unhealthy temptations and make good choices at the supermarket? The ‘Know What You Eat’ programme covers all of this. The programme ties in with core objectives 29, 30, 31, 34 and 35 (People & Nature) and core objectives 36, 42 and 43 (People & Society). The teaching pack consists of six online lessons that pupils can follow independently. Not every child is taught about nutrition and food skills at home. Knowing what constitutes a healthy diet is something they will benefit from throughout their lives. Is your school already committed to a healthy future? Visit the website know what you’re eating.
