[QUOTE="Malika, post: 416245, member: 11227"] Well, it's not really insane in this cultural context. Many children here in France go home for lunch (there is a very long lunch break and either parents have a long lunch break themselves and can collect their children for lunch or one of them doesn't work and can collect the child from school; here in the village, of course, that involves a minuscule journey). The children all eat together in the "canteen", a really good three course meal that is brought from the local town every day and J eats at school because when we first moved here I had lots of appointments in the local town during the day. Now he is used to it and I am happy because I know he is eating at least one good meal (he is not a big eater in the evening)! But if a child did have some kind of allergy and couldn't go home to lunch, I am quite sure that in the small and very personalised environment of the school, they would cater to that and find a solution. They have asked me several times if it is okay for J to eat pork, for example, as he is Moroccan and they know he goes back to Morocco regularly... [/QUOTE]
