Recipe competition entry and keeping this challenge alive.....

We want all of our six staff members to get involved in the challenges this week, so each day with different staff we addressed all the topics. Today Anna made more of an effort to drink water and wash her hands....we did have a customer that seemed quite snuffly even sneezing at the counter, so that was a perfect opportunity to discuss hygiene and remind Anna of the hand sanitizer in the front counter drawer.

Hand sanitizing......

Hand washing.......

Anna and i also discussed healthy eating and talked about the food groups on the Australian guide to healthy eating poster. 

We talked about recipe ideas to enter in the Healthy Recipe competition, we decided a snack recipe would be ideal for the competition, something nutritious and easy that staff could make and bring to work.
