Boomerang Lunch

Garbage, Recycling and Compost containers are not available in the lunch room. Lunch bags with leftover food, reusable containers and disposable packaging will return home at the end of the day. That’s what we call, Boomerang Lunch. Here are the reasons why…

1. We want kids to eat food, not waste it.  Instead of throwing away uneaten food at school, kids can save it for later.

2. Kids also take unwanted food home. This is meant to spark a family conversation about food likes and dislikes. Changes to lunch menus may be needed.

3.  Packaging is also returned home to be thrown away.  Hopefully, it will trigger another conversation about reducing garbage and packing waste-free lunches.
