Meeting reflection


Starting on march 14th 2013, four students had a meeting with Mr.Hedley, the meeting started at 2:00 PM. Mohamed AlFahim was the school principal, Khalid Al Khoori was the vice principal, Mansoor Al Hashemi was the student counselor and Khalifa Al Khoori was the spectator from Abu Dhabi Food Authority. As all of the members gathered, Mohamed started the meeting and spoke to us about how bad diet food is brought from outside school and what can we do to prevent it. Khaled spoke about the main points of the agenda. The type of food served in the school, Mansoor said that students don’t like to eat school food, Khaled and Mohamed wanted to open a fast food restaurant but Khalifa disagreed and told them to open a much healthier restaurant like Subway. Mansoor told us that he caught some students sneaking in fast foods and soft drinks; he had to take them because he noticed that the students were obese and had high blood pressure. Khaled said that he cared more about their health and started up awareness and called their parents to warn them about bad dieting. The members started talking about changing the school menu, they asked Khalifa if he can give them healthier foods to add on the school menu; Khalifa agreed with them and told them it would help the students by giving them a good amount of protein and nutrients. Since the members agreed on changing the school menu, Mansoor is more concerned about the food prices, seeing the students who couldn’t afford the food helpless; the members said that they need a reasonable price for the food products. As of that, Mohamed has ended the meeting and everyone agreed to change the school menu.
