Year 1 Super Sandwich Day

Students in Year One participated in Super Sandwich Day. The students have been learning about healthy eating and celebrations in class and used all of their knowledge to create a super healthy sandwich or wrap.

We were lucky to have such amazing support from the Year One parents in providing ingredients and preparing the food. The music room resembled a Subway shop, where students moved around the amongst a range of breads, spreads, cold meats and endless vegetables. They were required to use at least three ingredients in their sandwich and to try something new. The Year One students did this really well and created tasty and healthy sandwiches or wraps for their lunch.

As a part of the Celebrations unit, they have been learning about the importance of sharing a meal. At lunchtime, they each received a bottle of water, popcorn, a banana and their super sandwich and enjoyed it with their whole grade.
This was a great day and learning experience for all of the students and we extend our appreciation to everyone who donated their time or foods.
