Well done to @MrsReid_HE and 1.4 who were super confident learners and were able to share their knowledge about sugars and their impact on our bodies. As well as great knowledge they were using their iPads well to research too! @STAHomeEc @Mr_Henry_STA #EthosWalks #BeCLEAR

Eating seasonally is great for sustainability, but the health benefits of eating fresh, in season, produce are great! This is only a small selection. There is so much more out there to incorporate in your diet. #eatingseasonally #seasonalitycalander #sustainablysourcedproduce
