– Younger students (1st, 2nd and 3rd grade) will have the opportunity to travel to the Land of the Delicious Kingdoms and through a theatrical game full of puzzles, colors and imagination will find all the pieces of the puzzle of healthy nutrition!
– The older students (4th, 5th and 6th grade) will get to know the basic concepts of nutrition, food groups, frequency and proportions of meals, as well as the need to reduce food waste in order to protect the environment through interactive trivia games, group activities and exercise.
For the needs of the educational program’s implementation, a relevant permit has been obtained from the Greek Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs.
