Packed lunches

If you are preparing packed lunches for your child, ensuring the lunch is balanced and healthy can really help your child's health, as well as their readiness to learn at school. We ask that parents provide their child with a healthy, balanced packed lunch.  Here is a healthy packed lunch check list to support you in preparing this:

1. 1/2 of the packed lunch should be vegetables and fruit (with more vegetables than fruit).
2. 1/4 of the lunch should be protein. For example meat and fish, egg, pulses (beans/ lentils), dairy (yoghurt/ cheese) or Tofu/ Quorn
3. 1/4 of the lunch should be starchy foods (wholegrain wherever possible) For example: rice, pasta Bread Potatoes
