They have the menu plan listed on the bulletin board as you enter. We do pay 50 Euro per month for this option, but we think it's a steal and completly worth it!

We all pack sandwiches for lunch, the school provides milk. But then, the Dutch don't typically have warm lunches to start with. I don't really mind packing lunch...

Also, I think it's also because my kids are still at nursery that they don't get a hot lunch at school. I know that in September, our oldest will go to 'big boy' school, and he will get a school lunch. Though I'm sure it will be nothing compared to the one at your daughter's school!

My son can eat a 'warm' at school (it's a optional, about half of the kids bring lunch, half eat the school lunch), but I with the allergies he has/had, esp. when he was smaller (milk, egg, nut, fish, soy and wheat), there was no way he would be able to eat the same as the other kids.

In Australia the norm is packed lunches and I try my hardest to vary the contents of our son's lunchbox but I would love to give him a cooked lunch every day. We have talked about spending a few years in France and this adds big points to the pros column. Thanks for sharing. Sandra x I love this idea.

Very rare packed lunch here. My sons lunches are quite good and is publised every week in school entrance and on website. Some stateschool are very bad, so bad that Jamie Oliver has tried to step in and improve them....

A vegetable option is also available. In our school they also allow packed lunch but it has to be "healthy"... whatever this means!

It is designed by a nutritionist and they even offer suggestions for the dinner. It is one less thing I have to worry about!

In Barcelona, Spain, they also eat a 3-course warm meal at school, but, of course, they don't get yummy French cheese :) Salut !
