Today is fruit eating day. And although classes are suspended, they are still free to eat their favorite fruit at home which I reserve as their supposed to be "baon" in school for today. This is none other than....ripe mangoes :)) Happy healthy eating MJM!

HEALTH WEEK CELEBRATION

This is just actually the 2nd part of MJM's school Nutrition Week. And this is celebrated from July 26 to 30.

NDGM recognizes the importance of developing healthy nutrition among students and pupils. Much as they value the children's health; they also value their ability to learn. And to be an active learner, they should develop the habit of choosing only healthy foods and a healthy lifestyle.

The objectives are:
1. Foster a school environment that promotes good nutrition.
2. Make students and pupils realize the importance of taking breakfast before going to school.
3. Inculcate the habit of making healthy food choices as a lifestyle.
4. Sustain the practive of "Clean As You Go Policy".

The school's activities include the following suggested foods:
July 26 (Monday) Breakfast Day
July 27 (Tuesday) Milk Day
July 28 (Wednesday) Fruit Day
July 29 (Thursday) Vegetable Day
July 30 (Friday) Protein Day

And these are the food that I personally prepared for my two boys:

Day 2 - ALASKA MILK, rice, luncheon meat, C2 lemon iced tea
Day 3 - BANANA, egg, rice, C2 apple iced tea

The Department of Education joins the nation in the observance of Nutrition Month this July. Pegged on the theme, "Healthy Lifestyle ng Kabataan, Landas sa Kinabukasan," the celebration focuses on the nutrition and health needs of Filipino adolescents and children. Its particular focus is on the consumption of nutritious food to prepare them for adulthood and instill in them the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
