My Project

It has been a struggle this year to keep my students healthy and their little tummies full!

We have lunch at 10:30 and the students need a hearty snack in the afternoon!

It would be so wonderful to have a wide selection of individual snacks from which they can choose something they like! I have been buying daily snacks for them on my way to work, but it would be so wonderful if I could have some snacks here at school in case I don't have time to stop on my way in.
