The BARC is excited to be working with VKEW - We're boosting healthy food and drink options

Vic Kids Eat Well supports schools, outside school hours care, sports clubs and a wide range of community organisations to offer healthier food and drink options for kids.

With simple bite-sized changes that make a big impact, kids are being better nourished to learn and be active. Under this initiative, school canteens are swapping sugary drinks for water, boosting colourful vegetables in meals, and sports clubs are offering more half-time fruit options and adding veggies to BBQs.

Hundreds of organisations from around Victoria have already joined the movement to boost kids’ health and wellbeing.
