This term our topic is healthy foods. Hauora means well being, so it relates to exercise and eating the right food. This is my poster that I made to show the different foods that we should eat (witch is mostly fruit and vegetables) I also found out that you should have a colorful plate full of different fruit and vegetables like if you have only yellow like fish, chips, and potato you should at least add broccoli and some carrots.
