School Breakfast Program
Our School Breakfast Program delivers nutritious breakfast foods to help students start their day fuelled and ready to learn.
We work with over 550 schools across Western Australia, from Esperance to the remote Kimberley. You can apply for your school too!
About our School Breakfast Program
Household food insecurity is the main driver for thousands of students attending school without eating breakfast – a fact that can be quite shocking in a state like Western Australia. Providing breakfast before school allows all students to start the day on an equal footing and goes some way to combating food insecurity in schools and improving student wellbeing through nutrition.
Since 2001, the program has grown from 17 schools to over 550 schools by the end of 2024 .
Our Foodbank WA School Breakfast Program now reaches over 26,100 students serving over 80,000 breakfasts per week!
Hosting a School Breakfast Program in WA provides more than just a good breakfast for your students.
Soothing rumbling tummies and fuelling bodies and brains for the school day are the most immediate impacts. The health, social and educational benefits of feeding students flow through to benefit fellow students, staff and the wider school community.
Register your school
Register your school for this program to ensure that no child starts their school day hungry. It’s free to register and you can manage your breakfast club yourself, so all your students have equal opportunity to receive a wholesome, nutritious breakfast on a regular basis.

School Breakfast Program Toolkit
“The breakfast program provides for our students on several levels – physically, socially and educationally. It provides nourishing healthy breakfast food that meets the physical needs of students to start the day with something nutritionally substantial in their stomachs. The breakfast club has a safe and friendly atmosphere that allows students of all ages to interact with each other in a positive way, and also with staff and parents.”
School Coordinator, Perth Metro Area
