The Byram Hills PTSA’s Health and Safety Committee organized several activities for students during the week. During recess periods, the children turned paper plates into pictures of watermelons, carrots, bananas and oranges as parent volunteers talked with the children about the food groups, school officials said. 

“We were outside in the cold weather but it didn't matter - we had a blast,” said Denise Burke, who co-chairs the committee with Meredith Pizzorusso.

Burke and Pizzorusso said they talked with the children about the importance of building strong bodies by eating healthy foods versus junk food, school officials said.
