During the week of February 23, 2026, Bonnie Academy hosted Nutrition Week, a dedicated initiative to educate preschool students about nutrition and the importance of healthy eating. The program highlighted the distinction between natural foods and unhealthy junk foods, fostering awareness among young learners.
To actively engage children, a variety of arts and crafts activities were integrated into the week’s events. Parents played a crucial role by being encouraged to provide their children with healthy meals and snacks. Bonnie Academy expresses appreciation to all parents who volunteered and donated nutritious snacks during this time. Typically observed in March to coincide with National CACFP Week, Nutrition Week at the childcare center focuses on teaching children healthy eating habits through enjoyable activities, colorful, balanced meals, and educational games. This initiative is designed to introduce a diverse range of foods, support physical growth and cognitive development, and foster positive, lifelong relationships with food among children.
