Celebrations 🥳
We all like to celebrate with food, but its very easy for this to become more than the odd occasion. The silver Healthy Eating criteria states that foods provided at special occasions such as Easter and Ramadan, must meet the Food Based Standards for the Award and that at least 1 special occasion a year models how special occasions can be celebrated without using food . We have an example of this on the website :
