At Drimoleague Senior National School, we encourage all the children to bring a healthy lunch and snack to school. We believe that school is one place where our pupils should be eating healthily. Research suggests that a healthy diet during the day helps children to concentrate and focus on their learning.
From time to time,we take part in the Food Dudes Programme. Under this programme, children receive a portion of fresh fruit and vegetables every day to try and it encourages healthy eating habits amongst children.
Here is a list of recommended items to include in your child’s lunchbox:
Drinks:
Water/ Milk
Snacks:
Fruit, cheese, crackers
Lunch:
Ham, beef, lamb, chicken, egg, fish, salad, vegetables, salad, a small portion of bread, pasta, rice or quinoa.
