The NSW Healthy School Canteen Strategy is a joint initiative between the NSW Ministry of Health and the NSW Department of Education. The Strategy is all about giving students across NSW a taste for healthy foods and to make healthy choices easily available. Our school canteen is working towards achieving the strategy.
Whats Changed?
• The new strategy places food and drinks into EVERYDAY and OCCASIONAL categories. This replaces the traffic light system of green, amber and red food and drinks.
• The new strategy requires the canteen to sell at least 75% EVERYDAY and no more than 25% OCCASSIONAL food and drinks.
What you may notice....
• Promotion of healthy food and drink options
• Menu changes
• Portion size review
• Sugary drinks not to be sold
• No Red days
Continue to support our canteen as we work towards making the changes.
