Food in Norway

In this session, we get a chance to find out about Norway’s food delicacies, both traditional and more modern. Part of the reason Norwegians are so healthy must be the relatively healthy diet that they enjoy. Food is grown or hunted or foraged from unpolluted countryside and seas and simply prepared in recipes that are ‘koselig’ (comfort food).
Norwegians also have a long tradition of sustainability in food.

About this Topic

Exploring the country of Norway.

Unlike our previous four Our World Rays, Norway is not an Island although it does have a very extensive coastline, the exact length of which is unknown and its people from early times to the present day have been seafaring.

Look forward to learning about the Northern Lights, ‘The Land of the Midnight Sun’ and Norway’s amazing folktales. We shall also be finding out about the people of this vast European country and what makes them tick

How to use this resource

There are 5 Rays, which provide a programme for one year’s sessions for a children’s group running during term-time. For each Ray, there is a set of topics, each of which comprises a theme for a term or half-term.

The sessions are presented in a pick-and-mix way - some information, some games, crafts, videos, etc. You are encouraged to adapt the material to your own setting , the time you have available and the resources you have. Don’t think that you have to do everything on offer.
