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
