Committed to increasing the consumption of healthy food and fruit amongst Kiwi kids, the 5+ A Day Charitable Trust is teaming up with New Zealand’s Football to promote a nationwide school programme supporting healthy lifestyles in a fun and active way.
The programme, now called ‘5+ A Day Football In Schools’, will involve about 64,000 children, 400 primary schools and 1,000 coaching staff and volunteers, also contributing to the government’s Childhood Obesity Plan.
“Our programme offers children new opportunities to get active through football and provides school with practical support with delivery,” said Cam Mitchell, Director of Community Football, New Zealand’s Football. “It’s great that we can now offer a complete package to schools.”
