Create-a-café

In partnership with YMCA Canberra and the ACT Council of P&C Associations, we will be working with 8 ACT Government high schools to transform the food environment within their school. They will receive:

• a funky furniture “café style” fit out made from recycled materials
• local café champions and mentors to work with students and the school canteen
• Entrepreneurs: IYM design-thinking curriculum to empower students to lead the process 
• Food&Me nutrition education resources to build credible nutrition knowledge 
• professional learning for teachers and workshops for food service providers
• ”Shark tank” style pitch events for students to celebrate their innovations
• $1000 in seed funding for selected school projects
• personalised support from the IYM team at ACT Health

Transformations begin in semester two 2018. Watch this space for more information on how they are progressing.
