At Paparoa Street School, we promote healthy food and nutrition to our ākonga (Education (School Boards) Regulations 2020, reg 20). Educating ākonga about nutrition and encouraging healthy active learning contributes to their personal success and wellbeing, and to a healthier community for everyone. We communicate our nutrition messages to the wider kura community clearly and consistently in various ways.
Our enrolment pack contains our nutrition message and tips for healthy lunches.
Our kura follows food safety guidelines. See Food Safety.
