Hosack Elementary School Healthy Eaters Club Dear Parent or Guardian, This letter is to inform you that Healthy Eater’s Club is starting soon at Hosack Elementary School. It is an elective club that meets once a month during recess. Every student in the 4th & 5th grade is invited to come to the Healthy Eaters Club meetings. The Healthy Eaters Club is a chance for students to learn about healthy eating and healthy bodies in a fun way. My name is Jenna Bottles and I am a Dietary Technician. I will teach the lessons in conjunction with Mr. Seneca. At each Healthy Eaters Club meeting, a different nutrition topic is discussed from Healthy Snacking to the Importance of Breakfast. A sample healthy snack is also offered to the students. Students will learn the importance of food safety while preparing easy snacks they can make at home. The programs taught in Healthy Eaters Club are active since physical activity and nutrition are the keys to healthy bodies. Students will participate in activities that promote active learning like Build a Healthy Tray Relay, Banana Sprint and Apple A Day Partner Relay. This is a great opportunity for your child(ren) to learn valuable nutrition information that will help them make healthy choices for a lifetime of good health! If your child would like to participate in this program please return the portion below to Mr. Seneca no later than Friday, October 23, 2015. If they do not sign up, they will not be able to participate in the club. The first meeting will be during recess on Monday, November 9, 2015.
