Why we need to eat healthy

Healthy eating is important to help us have a balanced diet.

We need to eat healthy so we can keep going throughout the day. Food gives us energy so that we can do stuff like school.

Not all the nutrients and other substances in our day to day foods contribute to good health. So eating a wide assortment of foods helps ensure that you get all of the disease-fighting potential that foods offer.


Carbohydrates are stuff like bread,rice and potatoes these foods give us a lot of energy

Fruit and vegetables gives us vitamins and minerals to stay healthy you should eat at least 5 fruit and vegetables a day.

Dairy foods like milk and cheese gives us protein and calcium to make our bones strong

Oil and spreads we need some of these each week not all week but once or twice week.

The average human should have 8 cups of water a day and at least 1 hour of fitness a day.

Making a Poi

Over the last couple of weeks we have been learning a poi dance for the school production, a sort of play. The song we are doing poi to is ‘Poi E’ the boys did not get to make the pois but this is the poi I got made for me.


This is how you make a poi

You need…..

White red and black string
Cotton
A plastic bag
Sellotape
scissors

1. You need to brade the White red and black string ( leav about 5 cm of string left
2. Get a ball of cotton and wrap around the cotton ball and tie
3.Wrap the bag around the poi
4. Sellotape The bit were the bag meets string
5. Cut of lose plastic of

And now you have a poi that should look somewhat like the one photographed above.
