Starting September 20, families of students in Nova Scotia schools can order their choice of delicious, nutritious school lunches.
“The students and families I’ve spoken to are so excited about our Nova Scotia School Lunch Program,” said Becky Druhan, Minister of Education and Early Childhood Development. “The program is easy, affordable and nutritious and will support excellence in learning and well-being for Nova Scotia students. I encourage everyone to go to NSLunch.ca, browse the menu and check ordering and lunch start dates.”
The program’s menu is made up of 40 different lunches that align with the Nova Scotia School Food and Nutrition Policy and celebrate the diversity of Nova Scotian students.
Each school day there is a choice between two options with at least one vegetarian option.
Phase 1 of the program includes schools that have elementary school grades, meaning more than 75,000 students and potentially more than 13 million lunches could be served this school year. It is a pay-what-you-can program – families confidentially choose to pay the full $6.50 cost of each lunch, part of the cost or nothing, through the online ordering system.
