All about food

Today we had another guest speaker come into 1/2DW to tell us about their roles and responsibilities at work. Mrs Smith is a mum of one of our students and is also a Diabetes Dietitian. She taught us about what a dietitian does and about diabetes. We learned about what is in our blood by making our own out of water and red food colouring. We then added sugar and oil because our blood has sugar and fat in it. Mrs Smith taught us about what people with diabetes can eat and what they need to be careful with.
