Hassan: My school lunch is yummy, because I get a packed lunch.
Anas: School lunch is very noisy sometimes.
Rostislav: There’s not enough food, not enough choices to make.
Erin: Sometimes you get beans on toast, sometimes a cheese toastie.
Rostislav: Most of the food is not healthy. They say it’s healthy, but it’s not - it’s like burgers, hot dogs and pizzas.
Aamna: I would rather have healthy things.
Hassan: I want cabbages.
Erin: I want more apples and bananas and fruit.
Rostislav: More yoghurts. At least popcorn.
Aamna: My perfect school lunch would be chocolate.
Anas: Rice.
Rostislav: What about like a vegetable salad?
Erin: Fruit salad.
Rostislav: Vegetable salad and fruit salad.
Erin: And then, for a drink, milk or water.
Aamna: Is curry what you call rice?
Anas: I love rice! Or we could make our own sandwich.
Rostislav: Most people like the stuff we get more than healthy stuff.
Erin: Everybody eats it.
Rostislav: And sometimes there’s not enough food, because whenever you want to get something, most of the time it’s always all given away.
Erin: They do sandwiches, but we have to get something else because we are last. I think they should put another extra tray of sandwiches.
Rostislav: It’s always cheese toasties.
Aamna: That isn’t fair.
Hassan: In my packed lunch, sometimes I have pastries and sometimes a sandwich.
Anas: I get a sandwich every day. With cheese.
Aamna: Cheese is very good for you.
Erin: I like baked potatoes.
Aamna: I like eating healthy things, but normally I just like eating chocolate. I love chocolate.
Anas: I love rice. That’s my favourite food. Just plain rice.
Aamna: Just plain rice, no one will like that.
Rostislav: I like sweetcorn and rice with vegetables.
Erin: I like sweetcorn and cabbage.
Aamna: I like fish fingers.
Erin: That reminds me - they do chips with them.
Hassan: My favourite food is spinach.
Erin: I can’t wait until we get healthier lunches. I love tomatoes, they are so nice.
Hassan: I don’t like the taste of them.
Aamna: I like them, even though they are a bit squidgy.
Erin: If I had my own way, I would make every part of the lunches healthy.
Rostislav: We need “Make your own Sandwiches”.
Aamna: Yeah, “Make your own Sandwiches”! That would be good.
Erin: And if you choose bad stuff, you’ll get into trouble.
Aamna: But at the moment, you just have to eat what you’re given.
Hassan: Otherwise they just put it all in the bin. No one likes peas and corn, they just throw it in the bin.
Erin: I like the softer peas with the wee mint carrots.
Aamna: I like cucumber, cucumber is very good. I want a cucumber day.
Rostislav: We should have a healthy day where you always eat fruit.
