We often talk about healthy eating at school. Nursery have loved making their own healthy pitta bread pizzas and tasting new vegetables to go on top of them. Well done to all of the children who made their lovely pizzas and also to those who bring a healthy lunchbox to school! For more information on healthy eating or lunchbox tips please come and talk to Miss Watson in Nursery Blue (our PSHE and Healthy schools co-ordinator) or your child's teachers. Bon appetit!'.
