LUNCH
A Friday
Lunch Program is run by the Upper Elementary and Middle School Students.
Information is sent home monthly.
Parents send
lunch from home for all students. A healthy, nutritional lunch and snack
provide children with the energy necessary to focus and concentrate on their
work. Please consider including food
from all of the food groups when packing your child’s lunch and only include a
small dessert; or better yet save sweets as treats to be enjoyed at home. Parents are encouraged to provide a lunch of
reasonable size. Please do not confuse quantity with quality. Send only as much food as your child will
eat. Half a sandwich, half a banana, and
a wedge of vegetable may be sufficient for a primary child.
Please pack
your child's lunch in a labeled lunch box that can be opened easily.
Please
select simple unadorned lunch boxes for your child's lunch.
To help broaden
our children's awareness of ecology and recycling, please use reusable food
containers. Please avoid using prepackaged drinks and lunches that usually come
in non-recyclable containers. A
large part of your child's education focuses on caring for the earth. Please help them to learn to be earth
friendly.
