Project Energise lesson - Sugary Drinks

Today Courtney came to Paerata to talk to us about sugary drinks.  First of all, Courtney told us that our bodies are made up of 70% water and our brains are 80% water!  We learnt that it is important to replace the water that our body loses.

Next Courtney brought out some drinks that lots of us have had before - water, Powerade, Mizone, Coke, e2, V, raro, milk, and Mother.


After that, a few people had a go at putting the drinks in order, from the drink with the least sugar to the drink with the most sugar.  We were very close to getting it correct, Courtney put the drinks in the correct order for us.  This photo shows the order - water has the least sugar, e2 has the most!

Last of all we had to separate the drinks into everyday drinks, sometimes drinks and occasionally drinks.

It was a very interesting lesson and we all learned a lot!

Fitness Circuit with Courtney

Room 8 people doing tricep dips.
On Wednesday 26 June, Courtney - from Project Energize - came to our school to show us how to do a circuit for fitness time.  We had a great time practising the different activities.  Here are some photos showing us working hard.  The photos are a little bit blurry because we were moving so much!
