'Healthy Generations' program

A new and innovative program for parents designed to foster healthy eating habits for primary school children.

Pass on to your children your DNA - that is, your Diet and Nutrition Awareness!  Our 'Healthy Generations' program is a nutritional behavioural change program for parents of primary school aged children. 

Masterchef Australia season 1 contestants Geni Papacostas and Sandra Moreno instruct parents how to prepare delicious and nutritious meals for children.   Helping parents with the less tangible aspects of getting children to eat healthy food are a behavioural psychologist and a dietician

Run for groups of 20 parents over four weekly sessions, the program aims to improve parental:

  • knowledge and understanding of healthy weight in children.
  • attitude and skills in food preparation.
  • knowledge and understanding of children's food intake, eating motivation and body dissatisfaction.

If you are a parent of a primary school aged child or are from a primary school and you want to find out more, please contact Marita Slattery on 03 8622 5531 or email Marita_slattery@medibank.com.au
