Breakfast Program
Big Breakfast at Yarrawonga College P-12
Every Wednesday, students from Years 5 – 12 are invited to join us for our Big Breakfast. This much-loved initiative is proudly run by our dedicated staff, who volunteer their time before school to cook a hearty breakfast for our students. The idea originated as an initiative by Year 9 students who attended The School for Student Leadership for a term in 2009. As part of their experience, they had to come up with a personal learning project that they could deliver when they returned to school in Yarrawonga.
Students are welcome in the morning where they can connect with friends and teachers, share breakfast together and feel part of our caring school community. Big Breakfast is about more than just food; it’s about starting the day in a positive way.
We are proud of the way this program supports student wellbeing. The Big Breakfast is a simple but powerful way of showing that at Yarrawonga College P-12, we value connection, kindness, and the health of our students.
P-4 Campus Breakfast @ Workshop
Every Wednesday morning students can come and enjoy breakfast at the Workshop building on our Campus. Educators and nutritionists agree that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and many students miss the opportunity to eat a healthy breakfast in the rush to catch the bus or get to school. Our Breakfast program, wonderful volunteers, and the Workshop’s partnership with Food Bank means we are able to provide nutritional breakfasts for our students as well as create opportunities for positive connections and additional support for families when needed.
