Beausoleil First Nation student nutrition program to offer healthy breakfast containers
Centre de santé communautaire CHIGAMIK Community Health Centre (CSC CHIGAMIK CHC) is pleased to announce that they have partnered with the Beausoleil First Nation (BFN) Education Department to provide nutritional support for youth attending high school. The new program called Breakfast N’ Boats, offers Beausoleil First Nation youth on Christian Island who attend high school, a healthy breakfast container at no cost on the morning ferry ride.
“The Breakfast N’ Boats program is very complimentary to our BFN school lunch program for our secondary students, administered at their respective schools. Many morning students are rushed to make the 7:30 am ferry departure time and some don’t take the time to eat in the mornings. This is one less thing the students have to worry about,” said Sylvia Norton-Sutherland, Beausoleil First Nation Student Support Worker.
