Abstract
School canteens can have an important influence on the dietary intake of school students. This study aimed to measure and improve the availability and sales of foods which are low in fat, sugar and/or salt and high in fibre in school canteens in Western NSW. This can be achieved through increasing both the school canteens' awareness, and the availability of healthy foods. It also is vital to establish a network between school canteens and food industry.
