Hot Dinners or<br />

Packed Lunches?<br />

A big part of the school day <strong>for</strong> many children is lunchtime! Morning<br />

lessons are complete and it is time <strong>for</strong> a well-deserved break. You can<br />

stretch your legs, run around outside, play games and chat with friends.<br />

Most importantly, lunchtime is a chance to eat!<br />

Cooked school meals can provide a hot lunch. The meals are usually<br />

nutritious and healthy. It can be convenient and much easier to purchase<br />

a school meal than having to remember to make and bring a packed lunch.<br />

A school meal will also be freshly prepared, whereas packed lunches often<br />

have to be made hours be<strong>for</strong>e you eat them, which can cause them to be<br />

soggy or otherwise unappealing.<br />

However, packed lunches can be more flexible and ensure a wider choice.<br />

You can bring your favourite things <strong>for</strong> lunch. A packed lunch is individual<br />

to you and can be tailored to your preferences. It is easy to cater <strong>for</strong> any<br />

allergies or dietary requirements; <strong>for</strong> example, vegan or vegetarian. Packed<br />

lunches could include sandwiches, salads, wraps, vegetables and dip or<br />

anything really—you can be quite creative.<br />

Would you prefer to have hot school meals or take a packed lunch? Which<br />

is best?<br />
