Healthy Eating Week 2018

From Monday the 11^th of June to Friday the 15^th of June it was Healthy Eating week.

As the chosen ambassadors, we were set to create a PowerPoint. We made it on our own, only referring for help if we really needed it.

The group presented it for an assembly on the 11^th (Monday); on Wednesday (13^th of June) we had some ideas of fruit and vegetables we wanted the school to try, this included: mango, kiwi, apricots, radishes, papaya and sugar snap peas.

Ms Clements brought in the fruit and veg; Mia brought in some low fat humus and yogurt.

The children really enjoyed tasting the new foods and hopefully this will inspire them to eat more healthily at home and out of school. 

Year 6 had a brilliant day at the food and farming day at Writtle College, Chelmsford yesterday (6th June). They were able to taste different foods including venison and sweet peppers; find out where some of their food comes from; taste some edible flowers and herbs; interact with different animals including alpacas and discover which machines the farmers now use to help them with harvesting their crops.

On Monday 4th June 2018 the staff at John Bunyan had some training - can you guess what in?

This week has been a very busy week of football starting off against St Francis on Monday where the team won 6-2. On Wednesday we took two teams to Lyons Hall ,one game being a league game where we lost 5-1 and the other game being a friendly which we won 6-0.

Finally on Thursday 10 girls from year 5/6 went to a football tournament at Lyons Hall, drawing two and losing two games.

Well done to all the children who participated in the matches showing great resilience and determination!

Pines, and three lovely Maples, experienced a lovely trip to the Discovery Centre on Monday 21st May 2018. We completed great activities which included - environmental art, using the natural environment. The children were able to explore different ways to use the world around us to make pictures, create homes and match colours. We had a fantastic time and the weather was lovely too.
