Clinical Trial Summary

Obesity in children is increasing over the last decades and the majority of children in Europe fails to have a healthy diet. In the Netherlands, the majority of primary schools do not provide a (healthy) school lunch. However, previous research shows some positive effects. Within the current study the investigators want to implement healthy school lunches in the city of Rotterdam, a city with a very diverse youth population. The main objective of the healthy school lunch project is to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of providing healthy school lunches. This is a prospective, single center, intervention study using a cross-over design with 3 measurement moments to collect data on effects and feasibility. Additional feasibility data will be collected throughout the study via questionnaires for teachers. The study population is derived from primary schools participating in the "Enjoy Being Fit!" program in the city of Rotterdam. Children (4-12 years old) from these schools are eligible to participate in this study. Children from participating primary schools will take part in observations and complete questionnaires (only grade 5 to 8). Parents and teachers will complete questionnaires. Together with individual schools and stakeholders a healthy school-lunch concept will be developed and implemented for half a school year. Data will be collected on three time points during the school year. Questionnaires for children and parents will focus on dietary behaviour/food intake, taste preferences, perceived health, and the satisfaction with the healthy school lunch (also for teachers). Atmosphere in the class during lessons and during lunch will be measured in questionnaires for children and teachers. The questionnaire for parents also focuses on affordability of a healthy school lunch. Observation forms will be used to score on one day what snack and lunch children bring to/get at school.
