Three different packed lunch menus for primary school aged children with tried and tested recipes that meet the same nutrient-based standards as school lunches.
Many schools, in consultation with parents and pupils, have introduced a packed lunch policy to support the introduction of healthier school lunches. Lots of parents tell us they are not sure which foods they can include to ensure that their child’s packed lunch is healthy and nutritionally balanced. The Trust have developed three different packed lunch menus for primary school aged children with tried and tested recipes that meet the same nutrient-based standards as school lunches. These three-week packed lunch menus require a bit more work than typical packed lunches. This is because a range of foods are required to ensure that they are nutritionally balanced.
The three week menu cycles compliant with the final food-based and nutrient-based standards can be downloaded below.
