At OSHC we are passionate about making healthy choices. Our week was focused around educating our children and allowing them to make their own decisions that benefit them.  As always, children have the option of different fruit and/or vegetables with breakfast and afternoon tea.  Some of our all time favourites include bananas, oranges, red and green apples, carrot sticks, celery sticks, cherry tomatoes and of course, WATERMELON.

While we are used to these choices, we spent this week understanding the reasons why we make choices that are good for us and our growing bodies. Of course we also recognise the importance of balance. When we had ham and cheese puffs this week, we spoke about the importance of also fuelling our bodies with the fruit and vegetable options available to us.  Some of us even discovered that we actually enjoy the ‘healthy’ stuff, especially as it builds our big, strong muscles! Did you manage to crack the OSHC weekly riddle that related to our focus? People buy me to eat, but never actually eat me. What am I?
