Welcome to the Munch & Move eLearning program training
Munch & Move is NSW Health initiative that supports the healthy development of children birth to 5 years attending NSW early childhood education and care services. The Munch & Move eLearning program training contains videos, interactive activities and reflective practice questions which will provide you with the knowledge, skills and resources to embed healthy eating and physical activity into your service. The training is self-paced (on average it takes approximately 3 hours) and can be completed over multiple occasions.
Once you have completed training, you will receive a certificate of completion and your details will be provided to a Munch & Move Support Officer from your Local Health District. Your Support Officer will provide your service with program resources and ongoing support to implement Munch & Move in your service. For family day care, this support is provided at your service provider (previously scheme) level. Service providers must be trained in Munch & Move to receive this support.

PLEASE NOTE: On 30th November 2020, the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) announced that all accredited Professional Development endorsements have been cancelled following an internal review. Completing the Munch & Move eLearning training after this date therefore does not contribute to NESA Registered PD. NSW Health will work to re-submit for endorsement of the training once applications open, but please continue to include your Teacher Accreditation number in your account if you are working towards maintaining Proficient Teacher Accreditation in NSW. Munch & Move will provide any updates on this page.
In the meantime, please refer to the NESA website for more details: https://educationstandards.nsw.edu.au/wps/portal/nesa/teacher-accreditation/professional-development/pd-update.
