National Vegetarian Week 21st-27th May

Apologies there's not been a post since last week, the blog's had a touch of bank holiday hangover. Here's a site with a variety of useful sections for teachers and students:

The Vegetarian Society

The Vegetarian Society is an educational charity promoting understanding and respect for vegetarian lifestyles. With National Vegetarian Week approaching next month (21st - 27th May)it's an ideal time to explore the topics of nutrition, healthy eating, and respect for people’s differences.

The site features a page with plenty of ideas for schools to get involved, as well as useful lesson ideas for teachers.

For those studying Food Technology, it's also got an excellent page of factual information on food and nutrition.

What's more, schools can order a National Vegetarian Week pack for free; with Quick Lesson Ideas, posters, and a recipe booklet on veggie catering for schools and colleges.
