Healthy School Canteens

The National Healthy School Canteens (NHSC) project was funded by the Australian Government, as part of the Australian Better Health Initiative. Commencing in 2008, the project has developed national guidance and training to help canteen managers make healthier food and drink choices for school canteens. Guidelines and resources are intended for use in school canteens across Australia, and draw on existing national materials such as The Australian Guide to Healthy Eating and the 2013 Australian Dietary Guidelines*, as well as state and territory resources.
