Year 5 Health Week

5 June 2025 (by C Taylor (ctaylor))

This morning, Year 5 had a visit from Anthony who came to talk to us about healthy lifestyles. During the lesson we discussed how to keep our bodies healthy and looked at how to maintain a balanced diet. The main focus was looking at sugars and the impact that eating too much can have on our bodies. We learned that a can of Coca Cola has 10 tea spoons of sugar and that some bags of Haribo can have as many as 27! Anthony also showed us what too much fat can do to our arteries and we were able to look at and feel how heavy fat and muscle are.
