Programme outline

Quick Links

The programme begins in the classroom when the class meet Cookie. She works for Prince Yannis and has been sent to recruit cooks to prepare the Prince’s coronation banquet. The children go to the hall where they enter the Royal Palace and meet the Prince himself learning of his unhealthy life style through puppetry and storytelling.

With the guidance of Cookie the children are encouraged to plan a healthy balanced diet for him through a visual art activity.

The children help the Prince get fit as he prepares for the Annual Dragon Chasing Competition and debate what constitutes exercise.

There will be a short break at this point.

After break the children witness the results of their efforts as they watch the dragon chasing event and advise Prince Yannis on his personal hygiene as he returns to the Palace.

The cook and the children then help the king to review all the factors that will help him to maintain a balanced, healthier life in the future.

The coronation happens with the children as honoured guests.
