Policies

Policy checklist

Munch & Move recommends several key elements are included in your service policies regarding breastfeeding (if your service has children aged <12 months), nutrition, physical activity and screen time. 

Click the policy review checklist on the left, to identify whether your policies contain all recommended elements.

 

 

Policy templates

These templates are designed to support your service in developing customised policies on breastfeeding, nutrition, physical activity, or screen time. To make the most of these resources, it is recommended that you:

  • Tailor the content to reflect the specific needs, values, and context of your service.

  • Engage staff and families in the development and review process to ensure the policy is inclusive and relevant.

  • Ensure the final policy is clearly displayed and easily accessible to all staff and families within your service.

Download the relevant template from the selection below:

  • Nutrition and breastfeeding (services with children under 12 months)
  • Nutrition (preschools)
  • Physical activity and screen time 

Policy elements poster

Updating policies can be a challenging task, particularly in large franchise services.

We have developed a poster you may prefer to display clearly at your service, which shows your commitment to the Munch & Move recommended policy elements for breastfeeding, nutrition, physical activity and screen time.
