Vic Kids Eat Well is an exciting state-wide movement that’s focused on transforming the food and drink environments where kids spend their time. To do this, we are working with schools, outside school hours care, sports clubs and community organisations to provide nutritious and delicious food and drink options.
Vic Kids Eat Well provides clear and achievable steps to making healthy food and drink options available for kids. By harnessing the power of community and taking bite-sized steps together, we can create change to give all kids across Victoria the healthy start they deserve. Vic Kids Eat Well is supported by the Victorian Government, and is delivered by Cancer Council Victoria’s Healthy Places Healthy Futures, in partnership with National Nutrition Foundation’s Healthy Eating Advisory Service.
Your work with the Vic Kids Eat Well movement will support your organisation to meet the relevant food and drink policies and guidelines. For school's to progress further, Vic Kids Eat Well sets your school on the right path for gaining Victorian Government recognition as part of the Healthy Places Heathy Future's Food, Nutrition and Oral Health Health and Wellbeing Priority.
