Divine Foods runs the tuck shop at Stellenbosch Primary School and have great success with the healthier alternatives offered for sale.
Aims of a healthy tuck shop
Ensure knowledge, health and education
- To only sell healthy food that supports developing minds and bodies. This means that foods do not contain preservatives or chemical additives such as colourants or taste enhancers. The food will be as close as possible to the original natural form of the product. All biscuits and snacks are home made from natural ingredients such as butter in stead of margarine.
- To only sell food that helps to stabilise blood sugar levels en helps to manage mood swings, learning problems and weak concentration. This is done by combining healthy proteins and carbohydrates. When sugar is needed only small quantities are used.
- To make children aware of healthy food and a healthy lifestyle and to understand the effects of unhealthy foods. To know about the dangers and to minimise toxins in their daily diet and consumer products such as shampoos.
- To offere a newsletter on the facts around healthy foods and to present talks at schools to inform parents, teachers and children of the right choices.
The tuck shop is supposed to offer a service to children and parents and not necessarily to make huge profit. Healthy food is sometimes more expensive but the advantages are obvious.
