A fantastic opportunity for pupils to learn about both nutrition and sports/exercise in a series of practical workshops using our state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, run by our academic experts and supported by current university students. Pupils will look at energy expenditure measurements through a series of exercise stations and will investigate nutritional content of different food and drink in a hands-on cookery workshop. The exact content of each of these sessions can be tailored to your curriculum and scheme of work to ensure the workshops support and extend pupil understanding.
