Most Australian primary school children rely on home-packed lunches to eat during the school lunch break. Parents play an important role in purchasing, preparing, and packing food items for school lunches(1-3). Therefore, it is important to explore their needs in relation to information and educational resources to support them in these roles. An online survey was conducted in 2022 to explore Victoria parents’ perceptions regarding primary school lunches. One aspect of the survey was parents’ current use of information and educational resources in planning and preparing school lunches and any resources that they think would help them in this process. Frequencies and percentages were calculated for all quantitative variables. Written responses were manually categorised based on their similarity. Of the 359 parents who responded to the survey, one-third of parents (n = 118, 33%) were using information and educational resources in planning and preparing school lunches for their primary school child. The most used resource was social media platforms (e.g., Facebook groups and pages related to school lunches) (n = 90, 76%), followed by recipes (n = 88, 75%), friends’ or other parents’ advice (n = 40, 34%), cooking videos (n = 33, 28%), and shopping lists (n = 31, 26%). When asked, ‘Are there any information or educational resources that would help you in planning and preparing school lunches?’, 18% of parents who were already using such resources (21 out of 118) and 14% of parents who were not currently using any resources (34 out of 241) responded ‘yes’. When asked to describe those resources, most of them (52 out of 55) provided a written response and the most frequently mentioned resources were recipes and meal ideas. Other resources included educational websites and social media pages, and information and sessions provided by schools. These findings suggest that parents already use different information and educational resources when planning and preparing school lunches for their children, while some parents would like additional resources. Future research should aim to develop the resources that parents identified as helpful for planning and preparing school lunches, ideally through co-designing these resources with them.
