A menu is published at the beginning of
every term so the children and parents will know what is being served on given
days. If a child does not like what is on the menu, then he/she may opt to bring
a meal from home. It is recommended that the parent and child pack the lunch
together so that the child cannot claim that he/she doesn't like the food that
has been packed.
School lunches are optional and
can be requested on a daily basis for
€2 per
meal.
For children whose parents opt to bring
a packed lunch from home, please note that soft drinks, chocolate, chips or
sweets are not allowed. We recommend that you pack for your child a sandwich and
a fruit for lunch, accompanied by healthy snacks (i.e. fruit yoghurt, granola/
cereal bar, etc).
