Packed Lunches

Over the past few years, our School Council has been exploring a topic that’s close to all our hearts — and tummies: food, specifically packed lunches!

We’ve noticed that not everyone is making the healthiest choices when preparing their own (or their children’s) lunches. So, we’ve created a set of simple guidelines to help everyone pack nutritious and balanced meals that support learning and wellbeing.

Just like our delicious school dinners — carefully prepared by Mrs Cliffe and her team to meet healthy eating standards — we believe packed lunches should follow the same principles, using the Eatwell Guide as our inspiration.

To better understand what’s currently being brought into school, we carried out a survey to see both what children pack and how they feel about their lunches. It was important to us to listen to everyone's opinions.

We know that good food fuels learning, and healthy choices help our brains work at their best. So, what makes a healthy packed lunch? Here’s what we recommend:

• A sandwich, bagel, wrap or salad as the main item.

• At least one portion of fruit or vegetables.

• A milk or dairy product, like cheese or yogurt.

• A drink – but please avoid fizzy drinks.

• No more than one sweet treat (no sweets or chocolate bars, please).

To make it even easier, the School Council has created helpful guidance documents for both children and adults. You’ll find a summary of our recommendations below, and we encourage everyone to visit NHS Change4Life for more healthy lunchbox ideas and inspiration.

Finally, a very important reminder:
We have several children in school with severe nut allergies, so we kindly ask that no nut products are brought into school in packed lunches or as snacks. Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe.

We really appreciate your support as we work together to raise the standard of packed lunches across our school — and have some fun doing it!
