What should we eat? What does eating healthy mean? How many portions are we allowed of this kind of food or that one per day? Many questions arise, and our fourth and fifth graders have all the answers for you? How is that possible? Have they suddenly turned into "Food Experts"?
... Well, we have all the details for you, so please take some time to read along.
As part of its goal of educating learners globally, ABAT encouraged its elementary students to take part in the "Ajyal Salima - Healthy Generations" project that aims at enhancing our youngsters' eating habits, and that is in an attempt to fight the phenomenon of overweight, which is fast-spreading among children worldwide.
This nutrition project is carried out by the Nutrition Department at the Faculty of Agriculture and Foods Sciences at AUB and sponsored by Nestle Middle East. It is targeting our fourth and fifth graders. Every Monday, and for 13 consecutive ones, experts in the nutrition field, under the supervision of the specialist in nutrition Mrs. Carla Habeeb Mrad, are visiting our students to raise their awareness about how to eat healthily and make a positive and sustainable change in their daily eating habits and practices.
Our young ones are interactively participating in nutrition games in class, learning helpful tips about their health, and acquiring new skills in how to prepare quick and healthy delicious meals at home on their own.
Being part of such a project makes it possible for our young learners to grow more healthily both physically and intellectually.
So please drop by, and feel at ease to ask our little food experts about the dos and don'ts of eating. Don't you worry about the charges, you'll get a free consultation!
Contact us at ABAT primary campus, every Monday starting the 27th of February and till the 7th of May, 2012, from 9:20 a.m. till 12:20 p.m. in grades 4 and 5 classrooms.
We will be more than glad to help!
