The purpose of the ‘Fuel Your Imagination’
campaign is to educate students about the importance of eating
breakfast and the benefits of eating breakfast at school.
As well as educate, ‘Fuel Your Imagination’
will entertain children with a fun interactive space theme, help
them learn more about nutrition and foster their creativity. The
campaign runs from November 2007 to March 2008, culminating during
National School Breakfast Week, March 3-7, 2008.
As always SNA
members ultimately determine the success of NSBW – so get out your
space suit, look to the stars and get ready for ‘Fuel Your
Imagination’!

About National School Breakfast Week
National School Breakfast Week (NSBW) was
launched in 1989 to raise awareness of the availability of the
School Breakfast Program (SBP) to all children. Each year, the
School Nutrition Association (SNA) helps schools to celebrate NSBW
with a fun theme – this year it is School Breakfast - Fuel Your
Imagination.
