Pack your child a healthy lunchbox

It’s always hard knowing what to put in your child’s lunchbox.  Munch and Move an initiative of NSW Health have formulated this poster to help in the understanding of what makes a healthy lunchbox.  It is best to add a variety of foods from each food group – fruit, vegetables, dairy, wholegrains and lean meat and alternatives.

Remember always – make water your drink, pack icebricks to keep food cool (not necessary for us as we at Jacaranda put lunches into the fridge) – use a thermos to keep food warm.

And, of course, use a sustainable lunchbox which will mean that you have cut down on as much packaging as possible and recycle or reuse your waste.
