Our students were part of the 47 920 students across NSW who participated in the Big Vegie Crunch recently. The event was created by NSW Health in an attempt to increase the amount of fresh vegetables consumed by children.
Our MEPS kids brought a piece of raw vegetable to school as part of their lunch box contents. A variety of vegetables were also available for children to try.
At 11:15 we assembled in the playground and on the count of 3 a clearly audible "crunch" was heard as our entire student body munched on their vegetables!
It was a fun way to promote healthy eating and encourage everyone to include more vegetables in their diet.
