Breakfast Club

The link between nutritious food, mental health and learning

 

Promoting healthy food in school plays an important role in supporting mental health, mood and brain development in school-aged students. What students eat can affect their mood, which can affect their learning and academic performance at school. The School Breakfast Clubs Program provides healthy, nutritious food which schools can use to promote healthy eating environments. Providing students with nutritious high-quality food can improve their mental health, mood, concentration and memory, supporting greater learning outcomes, and building positive relationships with peers and teachers.

 

 

Thank you

 

We would like to take a moment to thank all our wonderful volunteers who have been a tremendous help over the year. Without them we would not be able to run the breakfast club program and we are very grateful that they give up some of their mornings to run the program. Should you like to volunteer, we are always looking and can always use an extra pair of hands. Please email Jade Hansted at jade.hansted@education.vic.gov.au for more information.
