Healthy Eating with Whaea Gina

For the past few weeks in Te Ngahere Whaea Gina has been coming into our class to talk about what we are really eating and how to read food labels. We talked about breakfast meals and how healthy or unhealthy our cereals or food may be. Firstly did you know that breakfast actually means to break the fast (fast means when you go without food for a long time).
We sorted the breakfast meals into 3 categories; Everyday, Sometimes and Occasional. We found out that Weet-bix and Porridge are the best meals because there sugar amount was less than 10, the fiber was more than 5 and the fat total was also less than 10. We had a really fun time learning about these because now we know how to read the labels on the back of food and we can monitor what we eat.
