This seems like good news. When our dd started school a couple of weeks ago we were told that she could have school lunches in the canteen. Great, I thought - that'll knock the fussy eating out of her. Nothing like school lunches to do that!
And they did say that they supported healthy eating and that the school lunches were all healthy options. So when did healthy options include hamburgers, pizza, sausage rolls and pasties? Fair enough - they offer salads, a selection of fruit, and rolls and sandwiches too, but what kid will have an egg or chicken salad when they can have pizza or a burger?
Well, she's taking packed lunches again!
