Welcome to WASCA
WASCA is a not-for-profit, non-government health promotion charity based in Western Australia formed in 1994. WASCA assists canteens and other food services to provide and promote nutritious foods and operate economically viable and professional businesses.
We are committed to helping schools and community create healthy food environments. We do this by empowering food services with training, practical tools, information and advice to influence people’s food and drink choices and nutritional status by addressing the collective physical, economic, policy and socio-cultural surroundings, opportunities and conditions.
WASCA works in partnership with schools, community, government, food industry, workplaces and other non-government organisations.
Healthy School Recipes
WASCA’s range of nutritionally appropriate recipes have proved popular with students, been submitted by canteen staff and include newly developed/tested recipes.
