nutrition talk @ health promotion board

i have been giving nutrition talk to children attending the health camp at the health promotion board building. the previous groups i talked to were primary 4 pupils from princess elizabeth primary school. today's talk was for some children from a child care centre in bukit batok. their ages range from 8 to 12 years old.

the slides are prepared by the health promotion board. all i have to do is to run through the slides and impress upon the children the importance of having a balanced diet. i have also to help them identify the healthier ingredients for preparing a salad, something which they will have to do as a follow-up to the talk.

i am paid s$50/hour by the company (esn) that engages me to give the talk. only nutritionist or someone with a physical education diploma qualifies to give the talk. at my first session, an officer from the hpb sat in to assess my suitability as a speaker.
