HEALTHY EATING

TAKE ACTION

Embrace your unique taste and make healthier choices!

Healthy eating isn’t just about what’s on your plate, it’s about understanding that we are all unique, including our food preferences. Some people love the taste of spicy food, while others prefer sweet treats. Some enjoy crunchy textures, and others like soft and smooth foods. The important thing is to be open to trying new things and making choices that help you feel your best.

The Healthy Eating Club is designed to help your students explore what makes them unique, understand how food fuels your body, and learn how to make healthier choices. Through these six engaging sessions, they’ll discover more about themselves and their food preferences while gaining the confidence to try new things!

By exploring their unique food preferences and learning about how different foods impact their body, students can make choices that help them feel happy, healthy, and full of energy.

What’s inside each session?

Here’s what students can look forward to…happy exploring, and here’s to making healthier choices every day!

I am Unique

What makes you special, unique, and one of a kind?

Every person is different – we all have unique talents, interests, and tastes. In this session, we’ll celebrate what makes each of us special, including the foods we enjoy. Being open to trying new things can help us discover new favourites and learn more about how different foods make us feel.

Unique Food Tastes

What do you think tastes good together?

Have you ever thought about why some foods go so well together? Sweet and salty, crunchy and smooth – different flavours and textures can make food more enjoyable! This session encourages you to explore how different tastes work together and to experiment with new food combinations.

Food Gives Us Energy

Which foods keep you fuller and energised longer?

Food is fuel for our bodies. Some foods give us quick bursts of energy, while others help us stay full and focused for longer. Understanding which foods provide lasting energy can help us make better choices throughout the day.

Healthier Food Choices

Can you use food labels to help you make healthier choices?

Food labels give us important information about what we’re eating. Learning how to read them can help us make better choices for our bodies. In this session, we’ll explore how to use food labels to compare different options and choose foods that support our health.

Unique Food Tastes – Salty or Sweet?

Do you prefer salty or sweet tastes?

Our taste buds play a big role in what we enjoy eating. Some people naturally prefer sweet foods like fruit and honey, while others like salty snacks like popcorn and cheese. This session helps us understand our taste preferences and encourages us to try new flavours.

Healthier Food Choices – Take Action

Now that we’ve explored taste, energy, and food labels, it’s time to put everything together! This session challenges you to think about the small changes you can make to improve your diet and feel your best.
