At Cancer Council NSW we’re passionate about helping families eat more healthily.

 To help you provide healthy eating information in the classroom and to parents and wider school community, Cancer Council NSW has a fantastic website: healthylunchbox.com.au.

On the website parents will find snack ideas, sandwich alternatives, recipes, tips and easy healthy swaps for those common lunch box items that are not the best for our kids. Parents can also get their kids involved in choosing lunch box foods they will actually eat and enjoy using the interactivehealthy lunch box builder.

 Whip up a recipe from our website and encourage your colleagues, friends and family to visit the site for healthy lunch and meal inspiration!
