School/Education Nutrition Courses & Workshops

I run a series of nutrition courses suitable for all key stages.  This service is offered to nurseries, schools, local authorities and child minders.

Examples of services available include:

• Full PSHE school programme for KS1-4
• Healthy Packed Lunches for Schools
• Advice for School Meal Menus
• Staff Talks on inset days

For the PSHE programme, each course is tailored to the specific age group and works within the non-statutory national curriculum guidelines to increase children’s understanding of healthy eating, its benefits and how to make their own informed choices

Every course is designed to be fun, engaging, interactive and informative.  They can either be run in one classroom at a time or as a special assembly topic.  The courses all include a 45 minute education session with the opportunity for questions.  Information leaflets are included for all child attending courses.  Prices vary depending on if they are classroom or assembly based and there is a discount for multiple bookings.

Here is what some of the children have had to say on their courses:

“Really fun & factual – very convincing to eat healthy foods”

“It was really interesting”

“I loved how you talked about what foods we should eat”

The staff talks are designed to educate staff on eating for energy, reduce stress and overall health in order to reduce sick days and increase productivity.  I see many teachers one to one and understand the stress involved in the role and how hard it is to sit and take time over eating a lunch.
