Nutrition Program
Here at Connaught School we believe that providing your child with nutritious food is integral to helping healthy brains and bodies grow. We offer a breakfast program every day before school starts, so that everyone has a chance to start their day without a hungry belly. There is no fee for the breakfast program.
Connaught also offers a lunch program. You can purchase a lunch card from the office for $15 which will provide your child with 20 lunches.
What do the $15 meal cards give you?
- Lunch every school day for only $0.75 per day
- Meals high in nutrition including fruits and vegetables
What can you buy for $15.00/month (approximately) with the same nutritional value?
Text Box: • 2 chicken breasts $5.00 • 2 cucumbers $2.00● 1 head of broccoli $3.00
● 4 bananas $2.00
● 2 cups of yogurt $3.00
Food for thought: Would this be enough food to make 20 meals for one family member?
Nutritional foods decrease the risk of:
● Diabetes
● High blood pressure
● Heart disease
● Obesity
● High cholesterol
● Poor school performance
As we still want to provide nutritious lunch meals for your children while they are at school, we are asking that you please bring the $15.00 payment for the meal card to the school.
