Our Year fives have had a visit by representatives from Burnley FC, who are teaching the children a Healthy Eating Programme. The 6 week course, running every Thursday morning, teaches children awareness and understanding of healthy living and the choices they make. They spend 1 hour in class learn the six different topics:
The food groups, Sugar – where is it? The importance of breakfast, Hydration,Healthy food swaps, The right choices.
They then spend another hour doing a physical activity as the programme aims to link up the relationship between healthy choices and being active. As you can see the children are certainly being put through their paces!
Hi, my name is Mr Farry, I still consider myself very much part of a great team in a great school, we really do ALL pull together to ensure the children complete a fantastic and enjoyable curriculum. I am still the P.E coordinator (a veteran now that I’ve joined the over 40s club), and still completely passionate about sport and my role in sport at Park. I am still actively involved external sports (both team and individual) and consider this essentially to maintaining a healthy body and mind. The children will tell you I’m still the jovial and humorous person I was when I joined the school, buy I’m simply four/five years older and ‘hopefully’ a little wiser, albeit with a few stray greys! My classroom is a busy place, with high expectations whilst still maintaining a nurturing environment, especially with the kind and generous Mrs Lucas by my side. The children, thus, continue to feel comfortable and content in their learning environment.
