From 10 October 2022 through 24 February 2023, students can get to work on coming up with a snack or light bite for the school canteen. They will receive tools to help them develop a healthy, tasty and realistic product, such as an explanation of the 5 G's of enjoyment, affordability, health, convenience and sustainability. They can also ask questions to the Jong Leren Eten brokers, and there will be an opportunity to take part in a cooking workshop for inspiration.
At the beginning of March 2023, all entries will be assessed by a professional jury. On 16 March, the three best groups will be invited to ‘The Day of the Healthy School Canteen 2023’ for a grand final, where they will prepare their tasty and healthy snack under the guidance of nutrition experts. The ultimate winner of the School Canteen Challenge will be offered a cooking workshop, during which they will prepare their winning canteen snack for the entire school together with a chef.
