Why free school lunches matter

[nzoomed]

The UK has done it for decades now but their food was very poor quality as Jamie Oliver had pointed out in his TV show some time back, im not sure if things have improved much over there or not but I hope that NZ can do it better going forward, it looks like its only going to be rolled out in low decile schools here but I think all schools would benefit from it providing its actually healthy food that the kids want to eat.

Yes, good quality is key, & the ability to opt in or out with changing circumstances would be a plus.

All I know is lots of kids a picky eaters, salads and coleslaw was not my cup of tea, the key is to make it delicious while healthy at the same time!
Thats part of the problem with all that junk food being served up in the UK, the kids love it!
