School  meals  will  be  quality controlled  and  prepared  in  school.  The  School  Dietician  has  designed  menus  keeping  in  mind  that  what  we  eat  affects  our  behaviour,  growth,  emotional  status  and  readiness  to  learn.  Student representatives will coordinate with the dietician to plan the  menu.  Meal  times  are  expected  to  be  opportunities  for  social  interaction  and  etiquette. Students will be encouraged to be adventurous eaters.

INCULCATING HEALTHY EATING AT THE MAYOOR SCHOOL, BHOPAL.

Food, we all know, is the basic requirement for proper physical and mental growth and development. It also plays an important role in the emotional well being and social adjustment of a child. It is the tool to address any nutritional problems a child may face like under, or over nutrition, anemia, dislike of certain essential foods etc.

Keeping this in mind, The Mayoor School intends to provide hygienic, healthy food in its mini meals and lunch menu. As a result, children would learn that healthy eating is a fun filled adventurous activity and the importance of various foods, textures, tastes and smells. The school intends to use peer pressure as a positive influence for children to learn that healthy food is also tasty food.This would ensure life long eating patterns and help parents in following meal patterns which keep the children and families healthy. To strengthen the message, regular workshops and interactive sessions would be held with and for children, parents and other adults in the school.
