HEALTHY LUNCH POLICY

1. Castaheany Educate Together School encourages healthy eating among pupils at all times.


2. Parents are asked when choosing lunches to avoid the following items - popcorn, crisps, sweets, fizzy drinks, glass bottles, sugary products.

3. The range of food suitable are: yoghurts, fruit, sandwiches, crackers, juices, milk, soup, raw vegetables, cheese, raisins etc.

4. The school has 2 lunch breaks - please ensure that your child has enough nourishing food for both.

5. We have designated Fridays as Treat Days. On this day your child may have biscuits, buns or a snack bar after their usual lunch. Please avoid sweets on Fridays.

6. Please note lollipops and chewing gum are not allowed for reasons of safety.

We seek co-operation of all parents in implementing this policy. Your encouragement of healthy eating habits will have benefits for us all.

Please remember - if your child does not keep to it - it is unfair on other pupils who do!!
