Healthy Eating Strategy
In 2004, the Australian Government established the Healthy School Communities Program which encourages schools to increase awareness of the benefits of healthy eating, and develop healthier eating habits. Como West has initiated some positive steps towards achieving this goal.Strategies include:- An updated, and fresh new look to the canteen menu.
- Weekly canteen snippets with healthy lunch box ideas and recipes, tips and information about healthy eating and news on healthy school activities;
- Classroom and whole-school activities on healthy eating;
- Support for making healthy changes to the school canteen.
Our school canteen is operated by a team of volunteers and is open three days per week.
