Who's responsible for feeding Kiwi kids?
Recently Campbell Live ran a story about Kiwi kids too poor to have breakfast.
We told you that research by the Ministry of Health suggests that roughly 20 percent of Kiwi households with children run out of money for food.
More and more of those children are having breakfast at school - low decile schools who really don't have money to supply breakfast.
But after our story ran we were contacted by a man named Victor who teaches at West Auckland's Wesley Primary School.
It too, is decile one, but Victor says they're doing things a little differently.
They're attempting to the stop the cycle of kids becoming dependent on food from schools, and instead becoming responsible for food at schools.
Watch the video to see Kate King’s full report.
