Do you ever think thereās an awful lot of junk food ads on buses and bus stops in Adelaide? Turns out, 8 out of 10 food and drink ads are junk food or alcohol. We hope this research prompts action to make Government property healthier for all South Australians.

Findings prompt a review and discussion of the suitability of food and drink promotion on government-owned transport and their associated assets.

Some people have told me they don't feel as comfortable posting on LinkedIn as Twitter because of the weird formal/corporate vibe over there.

Great to see Health and Education announcing updated Right Bite today. As a previous chair of our primary school canteen committee, having resources and updated standards will be incredibly helpful. š

Today I joined @PictonChris and the Blair Athol North B-6 principal Darren Stevenson to launch the revised Right Bite Healthy Food and Drink Strategy.
Itās important we provide the most up to date advice when it comes to healthy eating guidelines so our children and young people can develop good nutrition habits early on.
The students took us on a tour of their kitchen garden, which was fantastic! And some of the best apples Iāve tasted š
