Tackling Childhood Obesity: Discussion

Ms Maria Hickey:
Yes, they do and they have updated the fit-out recently. There was an out of date list of equipment for a long time, with items on it that we would never use. The money spent on canteens of cutlery that we never needed could have been spent on something else. As home economics teachers, we could look at what equipment needs to go into the classroom because sometimes the list is a little off.
