A Zero-Waste and Healthy Lunch Box and Snack… A Winning Combo!

 

This educational project helps students and their parents learn about how to eat healthy foods, protect the environment and save money!

 

This program is set out for the Francophone and Anglophone primary schools of northwestern New Brunswick, but we encourage everyone from all over the world to consult our vast array of online resources and start packing a zero-waste and healthy lunch box and snack today.

 

Online Educational Kit

 

In order to provide primary school teachers with educational and interactive resources, an online educational kit was developed. Its content targets several Specific Curriculum Outcomes (SCOs) of study programs established by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development.

Dynamic Project

 

The wealth of this project is due in large part to the collaboration of several partners, such as the NWRSC Solid Waste Service (formerly COGERNO, instigator of the project), Vitalité's Public Health Office in Zone 4, and the District scolaire francophone du Nord‑Ouest. The project was also made possible by the province’s financial contribution through the New Brunswick Environmental Trust Fund and the New Brunswick Department of Healthy and Inclusive Communities.
