Welcome : Our Mission

Good for Kids is about helping kids in the Hunter, New England and Lower Mid North Coasts to eat well, be active and be healthy. It is Australia’s largest ever program promoting healthy eating and physical activity for kids.

Our kids’ health is everyone’s business and everyone can play a part.
