Breakfast Club

Tuesday and Thursdays 8:00am in C23.

 

Why is breakfast so important??

  • Skipping breakfast may diminish mental performance. Eating breakfast may aid learning, as you are better able to pay attention and are more interested in learning.
  • Eating high-fibre breakfast cereals reduces fatigue.
  • Children regularly skip breakfast are more likely to make poor food choices for the rest of the day and in the long term.
  • People who eat breakfast have more nutritious diets than people who skip breakfast. They also have better eating habits as they are less likely to be hungry for snacks during the day.
