Seminar this Friday!

Grade 5/6 students from St. Andrew’s Consolidated School explored healthy habits through our hands-on Nutrition Education Program over the past few months 🥦🍎 From food label scavenger hunts to cooking activities, students learned about fueling for an active lifestyle, food science, and where food comes from.

The program wrapped up with a visit to StFX’s Human Nutrition Labs for food science experiments, followed by a meal at Morrison Hall — all made possible by our amazing student volunteers!

Only 11 days until the IDI Application deadline on January 31st! Join us on Friday for the Interview Prep Workshop with Jane MacDonald and the Dietetic Educators. All HNU students are welcome to attend!
