Food Dudes

The children in Junior and Senior Infants, 1st and Leap Classes are enjoying participating in the Food Dudes programme. For 16 days, the children are provided with a range of tasty fruit and vegetables every morning to taste and eat. Through watching Food Dudes videos, the children see their heroes and role models eat fruit and vegetables and they learn about their benefits. 2nd - 6th class are excited to begin Food Dudes on the 26th January for five days.  Food Dudes is an evidence-based healthy eating programme, designed to encourage children to eat more fruit and vegetables and to positively change children’s attitudes towards eating fruit and vegetables, by combining three key elements: Repeated tasting, Rewards and Role modelling.
