Welcome to our online teaching resource for Healthy Eating and Well-being, aimed at primary school age students in year 6. The Department of Educationhas taken the initiative to encourage healthy eating and active lifestyles by including it in the curriculum. Another step taken was to change school canteen menus but we as teachers neeed to enforce and also encourage the students to make these healthy eating choices. By emphasizing how maintaining a healthy diet can provide students with the foundation to a healthier and active lifestyle, because "Being active is good for you in so many ways. It can provide a huge range of fun experiences, make you feel good, improve your health, and is a great way to relax and enjoy the company of your friends." As a teacher we are trying to create student awareness of how healthy eating can effect the students well-being not just in school but at home as well.
 * Introduction-**

Our aim as teachers is to make the students become more aware of their dietary needs and how it can benefit them, mentally and physically. We aim to show the students how important healthy eating is by testing their fitness before and after their lessons on healthy eating. We hope that by making the students aware of the differences that it will encourage them to make better choices and live a healthier lifestyle.
