FEEDBACK from teachers:

“Natasha spoke to us in such a fun and exciting way. We came away buzzing and full of facts and knowledge to share with our school, our friends and our families. We are now sugar smart ambassadors for our school and are so excited about making a real difference thanks to motivation and knowledge from Natasha. Thank you!” Head of Early Years, Mount Carmel Catholic School, Ealing

“Thank you so much for your inspirational assembly on being ‘Sugar Smart’. The children were all engaged and you reinforced the messages taught in the PSHE health and wellbeing topic. Your assembly has helped refresh our ongoing efforts to encourage healthier choices, especially at lunchtimes. We hope to set up a breakfast challenge for the children to try to eat Wheetabix in the morning. The messages you gave about reading labels on food packaging are so important and we plan to organise a maths related activity linked to this, possibly linked to fitness too.. Also, the school council have suggested a healthy tuckshop at breaktimes to encourage children to eat more fruit. We really appreciate your visit and will highly recommend.” PSHE leader, Woodlands Academy, Ealing
 

We look forward to visiting your school and helping you to convince your pupils of the need to BE SUGAR SMART.
