What is Crunch&Sip®
Crunch&Sip® is a set break to eat fruit (or salad vegetables) and drink water in the classroom. Students 're-fuel' with fruit or vegetables during the morning or afternoon - assisting physical and mental performance and concentration in the classroom.
Each day students bring fruit (or salad vegetables) to school to eat in the classroom at a set time. Each child has a small clear bottle of water in the classroom to drink throughout the day to prevent dehydration.
Through Crunch&Sip®, schools demonstrate their commitment to nutrition education in the classroom, by making links with the curriculum and creating a supportive school environment.
To find out more about Crunch&Sip® visit the Crunch&Sip® website.
Crunch&Sip® was developed by the WA Department of Health. Crunch&Sip® WA was adapted from the Great Southern Public Health Service and the Albany and Narrogin District Education Offices Fruit & Water Policy in Schools Project
