Tasmanian Labor
Providing lunch will lead to improved concentration, better attendance and better student relationships
Healthy eating habits learned early leads to better outcomes for life
A Majority Labor Government will introduce government-funded healthy lunches in all government primary schools across the state over the next six years in a $31.8 million initiative which will improve school attendance and lead to better educational outcomes and healthier lives for future generations of Tasmanian children.
Labor Leader Rebecca White said while the Gutwein Government had made only a token effort in relation to good nutrition and healthier eating habits for Tasmanian children, Labor was dedicated to a wholesale change across all government primary schools to give kids the best possible start in life.
