Smart Choices Workshop

In 2012 Education Queensland, in partnership with Nutrition Australia (Qld) and the Queensland Association of School Tuckshops (QAST) delivered a series of Smart Choices workshops across the state.

The workshops provided advice and tips for tuckshop convenors, volunteers, parent organisations and schools on creating healthy tuckshop menus, supplying healthy foods and drinks at sporting and fundraising events and how to successfully market and promote these products.

You can view presentations from the workshops including a cooking demonstration with recipes and take the introductory quiz to test your knowledge of Smart Choices.
