Rainbow of Food

On Tuesday we were lucky to have one of our mums come to talk to us about eating a 'rainbow' of food. Jacqui Johnson told us that we need to eat a variety of food to keep our engines running.
We need to eat food to provide us with energy.
Food also provides our body with nutrients to grow and fix our body.
Children need 2 pieces of fruit and 5 serves of vegetables a day.
We discovered that some foods provide us with 'quick' energy and other foods provide us with 'long lasting' energy.
We also discovered that the food choices we make as children can have an impact on our health and happiness as an adult.
