Flavours Cookery School talk Sugar!

Posted on 03/12/2019

We had a very exciting whole school assembly with Dez from Flavours cookery school. Dez was incredibly funny and highlighted the importance of eating healthily and being mindful of the amount of added sugar we eat.

Dez showed us how many cubes of sugar there were in foods and drink. We understood how much sugar adults and children should safely eat a day. We also understood how added sugar can detrimentally effect our health.

Ferndown Middle school is highlighting the health benefits of reducing sugar and eating well, as per the ‘Eat well guide’. All students understand added sugar and how we should eat nutritionally valuable foods. We cover the health implications of added sugar, very specifically in year 7.
