Food for Life Cookbook by Life Education Trust Marlborough



Life Education is a charitable trust that delivers a health programme to children in preschool, primary and intermediate schools. They build self-esteem and teach children of the marvel of the human body so they can make informed decisions and lead a healthy life. The Marlborough Trust is completely locally funded, and all funds raised stay within our community.


Life Education in the Marlborough region

Since commencing in May 2006, Marlborough’s mobile classroom has visited some 99% of the primary and intermediate schools in the Marlborough region, including Rai Valley, the Marlborough Sounds, Kaikoura, and in 2010 we extended into the Hurunui region. In Marlborough, their programme is dependent on the support of a small but vital group of local sponsors whose contributions by way of funding services help them to deliver the programme to schools at a highly subsidised rate so that all pupils have the opportunity to attend.
