Year 3 Learn about Nutrients

Year 3 have been learning about healthy eating and the different nutrients that our bodies need. The children have been learning how things like carbohydrate, protein and fibre are used by our bodies to help them to grow, repair and stay healthy. The class also talked about the jobs that the skeleton and muscles do in our bodies.

As part of this topic, the children designed their own healthy sandwiches, which contained many of the things needed for a healthy diet. The children had to think carefully about how to make a sandwich look good, taste good and contain healthy ingredients.

The resulting sandwiches were fantastic and showed how well the children had understood this science topic!
