Fruit & Vegetable Program

This week the students will receive another delivery from the BC School Fruit & Vegetable Nutritional Program.

BC APPLES

Apples are grown on deciduous trees (Malus domestica) which reach a height of 3 to 12 meters (9.8 to 39 ft).

Tens of thousands of varieties are grown worldwide.

Apples are a pomaceous fruit, meaning they have extra or accessory flesh around the core of seeds.

For further information, fascinating facts and interesting history on this delicious fruit please read the PDF document on APPLES.

Students will receive their delivery during class time on Wednesday. This snack is not meant to replace the foods students normally eat at school. Students can make their own decisions on whether to taste the fruits offered.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the PAC or the school administration at 604-713-4620.
