Rich Task- New Healthy Menu
How did your survey go?
Discuss your results with other groups in the class. Ask them what they found out, and see if you have any results that are the same.
Was there a particular food that lots of people would like to see on the menu?
Before we go any further, we should have a look at the Australian Guidelines for Healthy Food and Drinks in School Canteens. The guidelines have a list of foods that are good for school canteens- GREEN, a list of okay/ sometimes foods- AMBER, and a list of no-no's- RED.

Now that you've talked to the community and done your research on healthy eating, you're ready to create a New Healthy Canteen Menu!
- In your groups, write up a new menu that you think would provide yummy, healthy food, including items from different cultures- to make sure we look after our whole community.
- Download and use the template attached below.
- Make sure you check the guidelines to check you've got plenty of GREEN foods, a few AMBER ones, and no RED ones.
- Remember to look at your survey results to see what other people would like to see on the menu.
- After you've filled out the template, write up your groups' menu. You can use pen and paper or the computer.
- When you're finished you will assess another groups' menu. You don't have to write your names on the assessment, so make sure you are honest. You will find the marking sheet below.
