  Fun, fitness and food!

  Darren from ‘Farm to Food’ also came to do a KS1 and Reception workshop with us. We went outside and did some exercise then discussed why it was important to keep fit. After that, we went into the hall and learnt all about portion sizes. We learnt that our hand is the perfect way to measure one portion size.  Finally, we made a banana milkshake! Everybody had a go at trying it. What a brilliant afternoon!
