All schools are encouraged to advocate a consistent message about healthy eating, as per the Food in Schools Policy. This means all food and drink provided and consumed within the education setting should be nutritious and of good quality. School meals are a great choice, however if parents decide to provide a packed lunch, or morning break or snack, the following guidance may be useful for healthy eating tips and ideas. The ‘Are you Packing a Healthy Lunch?’, ‘Healthy Breaks for Schools’ and ‘Healthy Choices’ resources are all available at the following links should you wish to send them to parents through your usual communication channels.
• Are you packing a healthy lunch?
• Healthy breaks for schools
• Healthy Choices – Choose wisely: advice for parents on nutrition and activity for primary school children.
