The Big Bean Boost!

Lesson: Personal, Social and Emotional Education

Class: Year 4H Year: 2025 - 2026

At school, we have taken part in Veg Power’s “Big Bean Boost” — a national, three-year initiative encouraging children to eat more beans, pulses, and legumes. The aim is to make beans a fun, healthy, and sustainable part of school life! We followed the short assembly where we were introduced to some of the beans like Toot and Scooper and we discussed how beans can class as one of your 5 a day and the types of dishes you could create using beans. Afterwards, we completed the bean game in our PE warm up where we had to be a runner bean or a jumping bean or a jelly bean. We then had a homework where we had to hunt for the beans in the supermarket with our families. Which beans will you add to your dishes soon?
