Healthy Eating

Welcome to Eat Like A Champ!

 

Eat Like A Champ is a healthy eating education programme for 9 and 10 year olds (Year 5 / Primary 6 / P6 pupils) run by teachers in their primary schools.

The programme has been developed by Danone in collaboration with the British Nutrition Foundation, the British Dietetic Association and Hubbub. Independent evaluations in 2012, 2016 and 2018 demonstrated that children who took part in Eat Like A Champ shifted their behaviours towards healthier eating habits.

 

Family activities

As your child makes their way through the Eat Like A Champ programme, get the whole family involved at home with our family activity sheets - there's one for each of the six lessons.

Healthy Lunchboxes

 

At Lumbertubs Primary School we aim to ensure that packed lunches brought from home and consumed in school or on school trips provide our pupils with a healthy, nutritious and balanced diet

 

Much research has been conducted into food that children eat and their subsequent performance in the classroom. This research and further advice to both professionals and parents can be found at www.schoolfoodtrust.org.uk. Please visit for more information.

 

At Lumbertubs Primary School we believe that eating healthily is important because it will help children to:

  • Be fitter and healthier now and in later life
  • Learn more quickly
  • Behave appropriately during the school day
