Year 5
In the Spring term topic of design and technology, we focused out attention on cooking and nutrition. During healthy living week, we had a chance to create and enjoy healthy vegetable and chicken kebabs. Further in the term, children were able to understand the importance of eating healthy and the benefit it has. We made links to our history topic by looking at Greek salads. It was a good opportunity to help the children understand seasonality and know where and how a variety of ingredients are grown/reared caught and processed.
