16. Ask pupils whether they have learned something new today, that will help them think differently about sugar and sugary foods? (With older pupils mention saturated fat and salt as well.)
Invite pupils to share their ideas. You may wish to share a food swap that you might make yourself in the future!
Ask for a show of hands:
Who is going to look at the food labels on food packaging, on their own or with a family member?
Who is going to ask a family member to download the Food Smart app and find out how much sugar is in their favourite foods?
If you have time, you might invite pupils to make some specific suggestions about foods they might swap, or other actions they might take.
You may also wish to highlight healthier options available at your school, for example break-time fruit and vegetable snacks and healthy options available through your school meal service.
Thank pupils for taking part and helping to answer your questions, and encourage them all to be food smart!
If you are going to hold a Be Food Smart campaign in your school and invite parents, this is a good time to explain what pupils are now going to do to help their whole family to be food smart!

21. If you don't have the app...
Some food labels have traffic light coloured labels to show the sugar content. Choose more greens and ambers, and fewer reds.
Red means this food is HIGH in sugar/saturated fat/salt. Think about how often you choose it and how much of it you eat.
Amber means this food has a MEDIUM amount of sugar/saturated fat/salt. This makes it an OK choice, although going for green is even better.
Green means it's LOW in sugar/saturated fat/salt, which makes it a healthier choice.
