Interested in implementing the School Breakfast 4 Health program at your school? Here’s everything you need to know to launch a successful breakfast program.
Our program is more than just a meal, find out more about how a program is supporting students everyday:
Many students may arrive at school without breakfast, which can affect concentration and learning. By offering a nutritious start to the day, we help students arrive ready to focus and succeed.
A reliable breakfast program can also improve school attendance. Research shows that students who eat breakfast have improved memory, concentration and problem-solving skills, all of which contribute to higher academic performance.
The School Breakfast 4 Health Program fosters a warm, welcoming environment where students can enjoy a meal together, develop social skills and gain life skills like cleaning up after meals. It’s a chance for students to connect, creating a positive sense of community and inclusion.
