St Anthony’s School Receives their $40,000 Canteen Rescue

St. Anthony’s Primary School, who teamed up with Castle Plaza Shopping Centre, beat more than 300 schools across Australia after taking up the challenge to turn their students into Australia’s healthiest kids.

Talk show favourite Chef Laurent and the founder of the Children’s Food Education Foundation Kay Richardson were at the school to deliver the kids their prizes on Monday the 1st of August.

Colonial First State Global Asset Management (CFSGAM) shopping centres, in partnership with the Children’s Food Education Foundation, launched Let’s Live Better in 2010 to teach children about healthy eating and lifestyle.

By winning the Let’s Live Better campaign, St. Anthony’s Primary School will receive a $40,000 canteen makeover including a solar energy package provided by Solar Sunwerx, two Thermomix kitchen miracles, a menu makeover and $15,000 cash.

To win, children were encouraged to include fresh food in their diets and exercise regularly.

Battling it out to win the top spots, kids simply had to shop at participating CFSGAM centres from April 4 to June 12. Every dollar spent earned students one point for their school but double points were awarded for fresh food purchases.

Great work kids, keep up the healthy eating!
