Healthy Lunches
Dear Parents/Carers
Here at St. Mark’s we pride ourselves on being a Healthy School and are always looking for ways to promote this. However, while many of our children are bringing in a ’healthy lunchbox’ there are some children who are bringing in food which is not suitable. I have noticed that fizzy pop, chocolate bars, cakes etc are regularly eaten at lunchtime.
It’s very important to make sure the lunchboxes that our children bring to school provide a healthy, balanced lunch.
This means plenty of foods that contain the nutrients that children need, and fewer foods that are high in sugar and saturated fat.
Packed lunches don't have to be boring. They can be fun, healthy and tasty too. Just
include something from each of the four main food groups, put in a drink (no fizzy drinks) and away you go!
Starchy foods. These are bread, rice, potatoes and pasta, and others.
Protein foods. These are meat, fish, eggs, beans and others.
A dairy item. This could be cheese or yoghurt.
Vegetables or salad, and a portion
Of fruit
