School lunches around the world.


Here in Finland , school lunc h is free to all students. The food is usually q uite healthy. In most pla ces , the
week's men u for each school appea rs in the local newspap er so our par ents can chec k what we are
eating. My sch ool shows the menu on its Intern et site as well. For example, I can see that tomorro w I'm
having 'fish in lemon sauce'.
Thomas, Helsinki, Finland

In Switzerland , students in most sc hools go home at lunch time. This is good for three reasons. First, they
have to wa lk home and back to sc hool w hich is good exercise. Secon d , they get a home coo ked meal
(traditionally salad, pota toes or rice or pasta with a piece of meat and some fruit) , And last, the family has
a meal together wh ich is good for family social life.
Nicole, Zurich, Switzerland

In most Dutch primary schools, there is no canteen and the students bring in a packed lunch. Teachers
ofte n reprimand students and their paren ts if thei r packed lunch is not healthy, e.g. if they have white
bread rather than brown bread in the ir sand wiches.
Petra, Amsterdam, the Netherlands

In our schools everyone in the school, including students, teac hers, sec retaries, and even the head
teac her eats the same lunch every day and most people love it. It co nsists of a bottle of milk, a bowl of
rice , usually some kind of fish, a salad , some kind of soup usually with vegetab les, and a piec e of fruit.
The menu chang es every day.
Daisu ke, Kob e, Japan

In Korea, schools don't offe r any meals. Studen ts always bring pac ked lunches and eat them in their
classrooms. The students arrange the desks so they can sit in groups of 4·8 . We always share our
lunches . We don 't think of lunch as our own . Ou r mums think of it as making a meal for the class and not
just for their own child . For our pac ked lunch we usually have rice, a meat dish, eggs and some
vege table s.
Ji n Park, Seoul, South Korea

In which country or countries '..


1 do students get free meals at schools?

2 does everyone at school eat the same food at lunch-time?

3 do the students usually eat with their parents?

4 do the teachers try to make the students eat hea lthier food?

5 do the students get some exercise at lunch time?

6 do the students usually eat cooked meals at home?


7 do schools put their menu on the Internet?

8 do the students usually eat rice for lunch?

9 do the students' mothers prepare food for other children?

10 do the students have a different menu every day?
