Go Bananas Day brings a burst of colour and fun

On Thursday 16 October, primary schools and early learning centres across Australia  joined Healthy Harold to celebrate ‘Go Bananas Day at school’ – a fun initiative that inspires healthy eating habits and champions the many nutritional benefits that make Australian bananas so a-peeling. 

Proudly supported by Hort Innovation and Australian Bananas, the celebration highlighted why bananas are Healthy Harold’s favourite fruit –  they’re delicious, nutritious, and a natural source of energy to fuel learning and play. 

Together, Life Ed and Australian Bananas inspired children from every corner of the country to think about how healthy eating can support active, happy lives. 

The day was filled with laughter, creativity and community spirit, as students took part in banana-themed activities, they also engaged in classroom conversations that raised awareness around the importance of nutrition for wellbeing and learnt about the health benefits of bananas.
