Our science topic for the second half of this term is ‘Happy, Healthy and Safe’. As part of this topic we are learning about how to be safe at home and school and what contributes to making us happy and healthy.
As part of the ‘Food’ component of this topic, we are excited to have ‘Mini Boss Education’ coming to our school to run a smoothie bar incursion. This incursion will run for half a day and give our Grade 1 students the opportunity to get creative in the kitchen and learn about food safety and healthy eating. The students will be split into groups to experiment with different ingredients and design their own smoothie which will be taste tested by other students.
‘Mini Boss’ is an innovative educational group who focus on providing students with authentic, real life experiences to develop a range of skills such as critical thinking, problem solving and communication skills.
