Energise - Takeaways

This term we have had two sessions of energise with Whaea Gina. This term she is talking to us about healthy eating. Our recent session was about takeaways and which one is healthiest  to eat. At the beginning of the session Whaea Gina showed us the difference between a healthy heart and a non-healthy heart. Whaea Gina told us it is good to have some fat around your heart to provide cushioning  for your heart but having too much can lead to problems, eg diabetes. After we identified the difference between the two hearts we made a table. One side was least amount of fat and the other was most amount of fat. A helper from the year 7&8’s placed photos of various takeaways on either side. Surprisingly there were quite a lot of photos under the least amount of fat. The pictures underneath the least amount of fat were mostly things that have a lot of veggies or are homemade like Chinese takeaways since they consist mostly of vegetables or burgers (again with a large amount of veggies in it) and chips (that are thick). But the takeaways with the most amount of fat in it were takeaways like KFC, MCDonalds and all other takeaways. After  that we had a test. Whoever won got to get their prize the next time Whaea Gina came in. I think I did a good job at knowing where a certain picture went and I think my group (who won) worked as a team and it went really well. Next time I think we should be a bit more quiet when we are working. Here are some photos:
