Providing Healthy Canteen Supplies in Adelaide

Our nutrition strategy

At Metro Canteens SA, we believe our customers should be able to make choices, so we provide very healthy menu items, made on-site each and every day using fresh ingredients, available daily for our customers to choose from.
All Adelaide school’s canteens should reflect the school community itself. As such, we work collaboratively with our nutritionist and school representatives to supply a menu that celebrates the cultures present at the school. We do this without compromising our Healthy Eating Policy and the DECD “Right Bite Policy”, to which all our food adheres, allowing us to support schools with healthy canteen supplies in Adelaide.

We provide a range of healthy canteen supplies in Adelaide for students to choose from.

This includes:

  • Fresh sandwiches and rolls with wholegrain and white bread (made daily on-site)
  • Low-fat yoghurts
  • In-season, whole fresh fruit (sold at below cost)
  • Fresh fruit salad
  • Low-fat flavoured milk
  • Fresh fruit juices
  • Freshly made low-fat pasta dishes
  • Hot meals – a full list can be found on our “About Page”
  • Assorted salad packs with or without lean meats

Metro Canteens SA has guidelines in place to help students make healthy choices, such as:

  • No butter or margarine on sandwiches (unless requested)
  • No salt added during the cooking process
  • Low-fat cheeses are used
  • Low-fat salad dressings and mayonnaise are used
  • Hot foods are baked and not fried
  • No carbonated drinks sold before 9 am
  • All homemade items are promoted aggressively
  • Low sugar (lite) drinks are given optimum placement in fridges

We pride ourselves on serving our freshly prepared foods every school day and strictly comply with the ‘Right Bite Policy’.

We label all our foods with coordinating colour classifications:

  • 70% of our food is Green (choose plenty)
