Teaching Resources  

As Australia's leading heart health charity, the Heart Foundation is the most trusted source of heart health information in Australia. The Heart Foundation produces an extensive range of brochures and posters for health professionals, people with coronary heart disease and the general public. Some of these posters and booklets are fantastic resources for the classroom such as:

  • Your heart booklet: general information about the heart, heart beat, circulation, heart attack, angina and stroke and a glossary of key terms.
  • How to have a healthy heart booklet: information about how to lead a healthy lifestyle and prevent coronary heart disease.
  • Your heart poster (2009) (A3 size but suitable to be printed A4 size.)
  • Meal and snack ideas poster: tasty and healthy meal and snack ideas for school children.

An exciting new catalogue, Eat Smart, Play Smart - A manual for out of school hours care, displaying all Heart Foundation resources is now available.

Please click here to email us or call us on 1300 36 27 87 for your free Heart resource catalogue.

Note: The resources in this catalogue are designed for use in Australia.

Our best known program for schools is Jump Rope for Heart. Since 1983, more than eight million Australian school children have participated in this skipping program for health and fun. 

Five Steps to a Healthy Life

Australian kids are not as healthy as they should be. The Healthy Kids website, developed jointly by the Heart Foundation and the NSW Departments of Health, Education and Training, and Sport and Recreation provides comprehensive, accurate and useful information for teachers to promote healthy eating and active lifestyles in schools.
