The paper written by Sarah Gray on page 31 focuses on "Nutrition: Whose responsibility is it? Gray says,
"The solution to student's nutrition is a multifaceted approach that involves cooperation and collaboration". Indeed, parents, educators, food service personnel, health workers, dietitians and nutritionists all need to work together to bring about changes to the way children view healthy eating and their actions when it comes to making food choices. But the school environment itself plays a huge role in terms of how students learn about healthy eating and how healthy eating is supported or not at school.”
