Every Friday is meat free, no meet is offered throughout the school.   
Fish fingers  is offered, or vegetable fingers. 
Jacket potatoes with cheese and beans or Tuna 
Rolls, with cheese and Tuna - no ham on a friday
We still have a high take up of lunches.   With 207 children in school we usually have on average 120 on a Friday. 

Activity description

Many schools offer meat-free and plant-based meals on a regular basis however a growing number of people are choosing to give up meat for one or more days a week - many because of the environmental damage caused by meat production.  If your school doesn't already offer a meat-free day, why not run a campaign in your school to encourage your caterers and school community to embrace a low carbon diet one day a week. 

And if you already have one meat-free day, why not see if you can make it two!
