Nutrition at La Trobe

Our health matters.

Eating nutritiously and on a budget can be a challenge for students!

That's why La Trobe's Health, Wellbeing and Inclusion team with some key stakeholders around the university have developed Nutrition at La Trobe; a university-wide campaign designed to help you learn about eating nutritiously, learn about foods that will help you study and help you discover some budget-friendly eats.

Have a look at some of the resources below, sign up for a cooking class or cook some of our recipes!
