Healthy Eating Healthy Action


Healthy eating is…

  • eat breakfast at home for a healthy, low cost way to start the day – try wholemeal toast and banana or porridge with milk and honey
  • fill a bottle of water from the tap and add a piece of fruit such as lemon, orange or apple for a refreshing drink that’s both healthy and cheap
  • have a selection of healthy snacks to hand in the cupboard at home such as carrot, cucumber and celery sticks, popcorn, mini fruit muffins or low-fat yoghurt
  • eat a range of colourful fruits and vegetables – different colours provide different nutrients needed for health
  • choose fruit and veggies in season – they are cheaper and often better quality from roadside stalls and farmers markets

Healthy action is…

  • set a time each week to meet up with friends at the beach or the park for a game of cricket or touch rugby
  • explore new areas of your neighbourhood on foot or by bike such as walkways, estuaries or inland reserves
  • take opportunities to be active throughout the day, like taking the stairs instead of the lift or getting off the bus a stop earlier
  • choose activities that you can do as a family – brainstorm new ideas while eating dinner together
  • have fun! kids need 60 minutes of moderate activity every day so switch off the telly and go play together



The Steamers are Smokefree – you can be too

“Smoking can’t be more important than being there for your family.”
Michael Delany

“Girls - smoking is a huge turn off.”
Zak Hohneck

‘I think for me smoking is bad, I have mates that only smoke sometimes, then for the next few days they run out of breathe. So my message to you is don’t smoke, don’t be a follower.’
Ted Tauroa

“Smoking related illnesses are preventable, you have a choice to say no, you have a choice to extinguish that cigarette and lead a healthy and full life.”
Nick McCashin

“15 years - is missing your grandchildren’s childhood worth it?”
Jason Hona

“Smoking limits growth and strength, be the person you want to be. Give it up.”
Tui Moore

“I choose not to smoke because it kills, it robs you of a long lasting life. Trust me when I say it ain’t no joke.”
Clinton Toopi

“Smoking not only affects your own health, it can affect your families. Smoking kills, friends and family suffer too.”
Zar Lawrence
