Third Grade Fitness and Nutrition Day
On Tuesday, September 20, 2014, Mrs. Huddle and Mrs. Dean's 3rd grade classes traveled to the Alliance YMCA to attend the annual 3rd Grade Nutrition and Fitness Day. The day was sponsored by the Panhandle Public Health District. All Alliance 3rd graders also attended.
The students learned about portion control, reading food labels, hand washing, healthy food choices and exercise. There were also physical activity stations that the students were able to participate in. Some of the physical stations were bootcamp, jump rope, tug of war, karate, yoga and zumba dancing.
Nebraska Beef Council sponsored a wonderful lunch provided by Arbys. After a full day of fun learning the students returned to Hemingford ready to put their new found knowledge to work. The third grade would like to thank all involved for making the day possible.
