The “Nutritional and Rich Food” Fair, which took place in school, was organized by the  S4 pupils and was part of the  biology course activities.

The aim of this activity was for the pupils to learn about nutrients found in each type of food and to encourage them to eat a balanced diet. Also to promote consuming healthy food such as bróccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, beans, fish, corn, potatoes spinach, etc…

During the presentation they explained that tomatoes, for example, are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants;  broccoli was  rich in vitamin B and  good to reinforce the nervous system and the quality of learning and cauliflower helps to prevent having  cancer etc…

This project took time, effort, organization and a lot of dedication over a long period of time as the pupils had to investigate, experiment in the laboratory, make posters for the presentation, leaflets, etc.

Something which they enjoyed making very much was a video in which they had to show how to prepar their proposed dish and give information about the nutrients whilst cooking the dish   at home.

The students were very satisfied with what they achieved which went beyond their original expectations.

Thanks must go to Sra. Silvia Carrasco the teacher who was responsible for organizing and guiding the students through such a successful and interesting topic.
