Teachers
Health and nutrition is becoming an important part of Queensland curriculum standards.
To help reinforce the existing lesson plans, you can book an in-school visit from one of the experienced Brisbane Markets’ Kids Program team members. They will deliver the healthy eating message in an interactive presentation for students between Years 2-7 in your classroom.
- Apples Ain’t Apples is designed for Years 1-4 and ;
- Crunch Time is for students in Years 5-7.
The free presentations cover content like:
- How many fruits and vegetables you should be eating every day.
- Why fruits and vegetables are so good for our bodies.
- Where do fruits and vegetables come from in relation to parts of the plant.
- How do fruits and vegetables get from the farms to your plate at home.
- How do you use/cook/eat different types of fruits and vegetables (live examples).
- Taste testing of unusual vegetables and popular fruits like apples or bananas (dependent on what is available).
Firstly you need to check if you are a registered school and are eligible to receive a Brisbane Markets’ Kids Program school visit.
