Foods eaten at school contribute significantly to students’ daily nutrient intake and also have a considerable influence on the development of their eating habits, growth patterns and energy levels. Here at M.A.C., we work together to support a whole-school approach to building a school culture in which students actively choose nutritious foods and a healthy lifestyle. M.A.C. has 2 full-service canteens on campus that serve a variety of food for Grades 4 through 12. Students may bring their lunch from home and eat picnic style in the school playground, or purchase food from the canteen. Students from Kindergarten to Grade 3 eat lunch together in their own area and do not purchase food from the canteen.
