Transforming the culture of food and nutrition through our school programs

About our programs

Welcome to Australia’s leading experts in high school nutrition programs.

At The Biting Truth, we believe that nurturing the health and wellbeing of adolescents is essential for their growth and development. A key part of this is helping them build a positive relationship with their bodies, food and physical activity. Our mission is to transform how students perceive nutrition and overall wellness.

Whether you are interested in a one-off nutrition workshop or a comprehensive series, we’re here to support your school community.

Our practical and interactive programs cater to all year groups (7-12) and can be delivered in smaller classes or for entire year groups. Led by our expert Accredited Practicing Dietitians, each session is grounded in scientific research and aligned with PDHPE/HPE curriculums across Australia.
