Fruit & Vegetable Program

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

PEARS

A pear is a fruit that varies from apple-shaped to teardrop-shaped.

Its skin colour ranges from green and light yellow to red and brown.

If you pull on the stem and it comes out easily, the pear is ripe.

Meet some pear farmers and learn some interesting facts about different varieties of pears in this PDF document on PEARS.

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.
