Milk Bag Spirit Challenges

Thanks to all of those who participated in the 1st Milk Bag Challenge.  A number of creatively decorated socks were on display.

When the dust cleared, the socks of Mrs. Muldoon's class stood the tallest giving them the first place prize of 50 milk bags.  In 2nd was Mr. Kennette's class receiving 30 and Mrs. Barnes class pulled in the bronze medal prize of 20 bags.  Great work guys.

Just a reminder that challenge #2, the class Easter themed poem, should be submitted by nutrition break this morning.  We already have received one excellent submission, so let's see what your class can do in rhyme time.

WEDNESDAY HEALTH ANNOUCEMENT

     A Healthy announcement from Ethan MacArthur.


Being healthy is important. I know that eating chips,

cookies and stuff like that taste good but there could be negative consequences of eating a lot of junk food.

In 2013, 42 million infants and young children were overweight or obese, worldwide1 and 70 million young children will be overweight or obese by 2025 if current trends continue.1

So let us aim to make more healthy choices in our lives. Next time you go to that fridge, grab a healthy snack. Your heart will thank you.

A HEALTH TIP FROM COLUM BONDY

You need to take essential vitamins that have been proven to help maintain a  healthy lifestyle. Fish oil is one of nature's richest sources of omega-3. It gives you additional energy and has been proven to help with weight loss. It is a great vitamin to take and I highly recommend it.
