Hanoi: School meals for primary pupils must be assured
A set of 40 standardised menus, which are both nutritious and delicious, have been created to ensure the good health and stature of primary pupils in Hanoi.
The school meals have been selected based on such criteria as healthy and balanced diets, preparation with a wide range of local food, and reducing the proliferation of processed food, sugar and salt. The National Institute of Nutrition will give support to primary schools in nutrition education through the “Three minutes to change awareness” programme.
School meals have crucial roles in improving students’ physical fitness and mental health, the institute said, noting that some developed countries like Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States have mapped out specific regulations on nutrition and food hygiene standards for students’ meals.
In Hanoi, fine-tuning children’s nutrition through rational school meals is a significant content in the National Nutrition Strategy and comprehensive plan on developing Vietnamese people’s physical strength and stature for the 2011-2030 period.
