10. Benefits
• Improved student behaviour-“the children
were more alert, not tired, not complaining,
not hungry and had better behaviour”
• Increased health and nutrition for
students-“the children were getting better
nutrition” and “it was a learning experience
for the students – they are learning about
nutrition”
• Improved concentration/energy-“the
students are able to concentrate better and
cooperate more at school with breakfast”
• Increased food security–“it is difficult to
get food here because people don’t have
vehicles, so the breakfast program helped
students to have access to breakfast” and
“the students feel secure because they know
they will get breakfast and they know that it
helps them”
