As part of the World Food Day commemorations, educational and practical activities were carried out to raise awareness among the youngest about the importance of a balanced diet.
The sessions took place in various educational establishments in the municipality, including the Centro Escolar, Vila Verde School, Santo Estêvão and Mairos schools, and Bustelo School, over several days.
The initiative included a practical banana pancake making activity, carried out by the children with the guidance of a nutritionist, educators, and teachers, followed by the consumption of fruit and milk.
“"The sessions aimed to raise awareness among the youngest about the importance of a balanced diet, highlighting the contribution of school snacks and meals served at school to health, growth, and learning success."
This initiative also highlighted the role of municipal school snack programs, aiming to consolidate healthy eating habits from childhood and promote more conscious food choices.
