Healthy Eating

BrightBites is a website for the school community that provides evidence-based information and resources that supports positive relationship with food and body image in school communities.

Children’s Program, developed by the Canadian Produce Marketing Association (CPMA), encourages consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables for better overall health. Program elements are designed to help children understand the benefits of making healthy food choices that include fresh vegetables and fruit. Schools can download the Freggie™ In-School Program in a ready-to-implement kit that will complement your school’s healthy living initiatives including Ontario’s PPM 150. The Freggie™ program also includes activities for children such as an interactive Write to Freggie™ program, Freggie Tales™ adventures, games, jokes, recipes and more at Freggie Tales™.
