[AnnLeopard]

A Welsh Member of Parliament has launched an attempt to try and ban (0) .......food from school vending machines. Jon Owen Jones, the MP for Cardiff, said a ban (1) .............................. help reduce the problem of unhealthy diets in schoolchildren. Mr Jones said: ‘At the age of six, one in five children are (2) .............................., and one in 10 are obese. By the age of 15 this has risen to 31% and 17%.’
Mr Jones said he was trying to change the law permitting schools to sell high-fat food and drinks to their pupils. ‘Banning junk food from vending machines (3) .............................. solve the problem but it is an important first step. We must not (4) .............................. in the corridor all the work done in the classroom on (5) .............................. eating.’
Mr Jones’ bill (6) .............................. become law without government support, but he said that he hopes it will help raise the profile of his campaign on the issue. At Willows Comprehensive School in Cardiff, part of the students’ personal and social responsibility programme looks at healthy eating. Teacher Ian Whittaker said: ‘What we look at is how to promote healthy eating through our curriculum within the classroom but also through the choices we offer kids in school.’ He thinks vending machines can undermine the work being done with pupils. ‘I feel we are trying our hardest to promote (7) .............................. in our children and yet at the same time the vending machines are actually promoting
(8) .............................. eating,’ he added.
