Pupils from class 6 discussed healthy diets and lifestyles in home economics lessons. They created food pyramids to illustrate the recommended daily intake of various food groups. The food pyramid outlines the recommended weekly and daily servings from meat and substitutes, milk and dairy products, cereals and carbohydrates, vegetables, fruits, and liquids. It emphasizes being moderately physically active for at least 150 minutes per week and consuming a variety of foods while limiting sweets and fats.
