2. 15-21 August We wanted to promote healthier foods byWe felt
that the students in our school using monetary incentives, however
thiswere eating much too unhealthily for theirown good and we
wanted to change the was found to be unfeasible. Also, we wanted to
create a healthy, cheap, andsituation before long term negative
nice meal for students to choose whenimpacts came about. deciding
what to eat during recesses and lunch breaks. We promoted this to
our peers and also tried to talk with the stall owners. We targeted
stall owners which the students indicated in their survey as
unhealthy stalls. We tried to convince them to get healthier
options for food, and also aid them in choosing healthier food. We
also put up posters in a three-day Design for Change event held in
our school. Through the posters, we hoped to garner support and
create more awareness among the entire school community. Even
though it was left unmanned for most part of the day, we believe
that the staff and students went to the posters and learned
something new from them, and gained a new perspective. Our talk
with the stall owners had a great impact on our group. We realised
that the stalls had already used healthy foods in their meals, and
already used healthier substitutes for certain foods. One stall
however, was not receptive to change refused to change. We believe
that we should also change the perspectives of the school body
about the stalls in the canteen in terms of healthy eating.
