World Food Day 2009

 

Friday 16th October marked World Food Day, the United Nations called on the world to remembeber the more than 1 billion urgently hungry people with inadequate access to food. "Children develop an understanding of their own rights and those of others", Te Whaariki, Contribution.
For morning tea on this day we ate rice and sushi, thinking of all the children who only eat rice for every meal every day.
Tamara brought in her rice cooker and Tyra, Maia, Sarah and Taylah helped to washed the rice and clean the spoons to eat the rice with. Tamara also made a range of sushi rolls for us to all try. Marley ate a rice ball, Max, Jasper and Laker await the soy sauce and Charlie samples a seaweed roll. We could choose to have plain rice or rice with soy sauce. Lots of children asked or more and a few even licked their plates clean.
