Healthy Eating

A balanced diet is essential to children’s growth. To promote healthy eating, we highly encourage parents to order lunch provided by Murray Food & Beverage Limited which follows the nutritional guidelines of “EatSmart@school.hk” Campaign or prepare homemade lunch according to the Healthy Eating Food Pyramid.

A well-portioned meal provides all nutrients needed without excess energy. In general, grains are the main staple; and the rest should be comprised of mainly vegetables and some meat. If a lunch box/plate is divided equally into six parts, then grains should take up three; two of the rest should be vegetables and one should be meat (and alternatives). As such, the ratio of grains, vegetables and meat to the volume of a lunch box/plate is 3:2:1.

We highly recommend parents prepare healthy snacks with appropriate amount, so as not to spoil the child’s appetite for the main meal. As one of the Green Elites Campuses, we are keen to promote eco-friendliness. Therefore, we also encourage students to bring their own snack box and water bottle every day.
