2. Healthy lunches • Each week at the Goldfields Senior School, one of the classes prepares a healthy lunch to share with all the students. • They have to decide what they are going to prepare for the students. • We always try to have the five colours in the vegetables we serve with the meal. • Sometimes we decide to have an ‘occasional ‘ food as a treat. We do like ice cream with our winter desserts.
