Children are growing and developing rapidly. Healthy food provides enough energy and nutrients to play and learn happily. Focusing on healthy and sustainable food at school can significantly improve children’s eating patterns. A nutrition policy shows how your school pays attention to health and sustainability, and what you ask of parents and caregivers. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre has an example nutrition policy that you can easily adapt into a policy that suits your school.

Showcase your new policy!

Have you introduced a new nutrition policy or taken a new step towards healthy and sustainable food? Show it throughout the school. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre has attractive posters for communicating about sugar cubes in drinks, healthy snacks and lunch boxes. Order the posters from the webshop completely free of charge (including shipping!) using the discount code gezondopschool, and inspire parents, pupils and colleagues with healthy examples. This offer runs until 1 November.
