Health Week in Year 3!

During Health Week Year 3 have learnt how to prepare a healthy meal, who to call help from in an emergency and learnt about the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Throughout the week the children had the opportunity to learn about healthy foods, exercise, hygiene, dangerous household products and what keeps our bodies healthy.

The children also met with firefighters and explored their fire engine in school and the children received some first aid training from St John ambulance paramedics.
