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.

What schools have to say

Boarding school nutrition program

We take pride in partnering with boarding schools to provide ongoing and comprehensive nutrition support for students, staff, cooks, and families.

Our interactive and engaging nutrition workshops are designed to reach various year groups, empowering students to make informed and health-conscious food choices. Our goal is to boost each student’s confidence and knowledge, equipping them with the tools for a healthy lifestyle.

Recognizing the vital role of a balanced diet in a boarding school environment, we collaborate closely with chefs and cooks to ensure that the food provided meets high standards and addresses the diverse needs of all students.

Meet The Biting Truth

Eating well should feel normal for young people, yet most students are drowning in nutrition myths, body pressures and online noise. We started The Biting Truth to give schools a clear way through that mess.

For over 10 years, we’ve delivered practical, evidence based sessions to students in Years 7 to 12. We show them how food shapes energy, mood, focus and performance, and we replace confusion with simple tools they can use straight away.

Our approach is real world: science explained simply, stories they can relate to and hands on food experiences. We work with wellbeing teams and PDHPE staff to build nutrition confidence across whole year groups.
