Resources for Educators
These resources are meant for school-based educators, to increase their knowledge about nutrition in schools.  Some of these resources are Manitoba specific, others have been developed outside of Manitoba.

Healthy Classroom Celebrations

Healthy Classroom Celebrations

Birthday party, field trip, sport tournament, club wrap up, visits with friends and family, music recital, after-school club …. sound familiar? Children are busy and seem to go from one celebration event to another! Make the classroom a place to experience delicious, healthy food as well as learning!
