Leda led our school’s nutrition awareness activities, which included daily wellness wake-up announcements and a delicious water tasting event. Our wonderful parents, led by Leda, talked to students about using fruits, vegetables and herbs to make water tastes interesting in the hopes that our youngsters will choose to drink water rather than flavored drinks and juices. The children (and staff members!) had a great time making and tasting their own water recipes. The favorite? A combination of lemon, crushed pineapple and mint. Leda sent home packets of fun activities for families to do together based on nutritional information. Thanks, Leda for teaching our students about lifelong healthy habits.
