  We thought about what school meals we would like next year that are healthy. Our ideas are …
  Fruit salad
  Seafood
  Fish fingers
  Salad
  Fish – like salmon or tuna
  Roast Chicken and vegetables
  Milk shakes
  Tomato ketchup
  Roast beef and Yorkshire Pudding
  Burgers
  Cheese Pizza
  ice cream / lollies
  Chicken nuggets and chips
  Mashed potato and gravy
  Rice pudding
  Chinese stir fry
  Banana
  Turkey
  We like the idea of being able to suggest our favourites and we tried to keep our ideas healthy. Perhaps if we do a tally of the most popular meals suggested it would give school dinner ladies an idea of what we will enjoy most.
  Thank you school council

  I think that the idea about homemade Burgers is not interesting. Although, the idea about homemade soup would be very nice if we could have chicken soup. or if we could have chicken and noodle soup. In Mrs Pritchards class we have already talked about it and are very pleased to see pip’s effort and we accept. we hope that more people will have more school dinners soon From Hayley.T

  I think we should try some new foods that most people have not tried before, such as paella from Spain. Some new types of fish.

• 4    Heather Massey // May 9, 2007 at 2:19 pm

  i dont have school dinners very often but i would like:
  fish fingers,chicken nuggets,homemade burgers,tomato ketchup,milkshakes,apple and orange juice,vegtables,lots of fresh fruit,ice lollies/ice cream and chips , cherries and jelly.
  I think we should all have metal knifes,forks and spoons because plastic ones are hard to eat with.

• 5    Callum Parrish // May 10, 2007 at 3:07 am

  i think we should have food from different countries every week so people know what it tastes like.we could have carbonara from italy or tortilla from spain.i would be nice to try them out.i don’t have school dinners because i don’t know what the food tastes like.for people who don’t have school dinners i think we could try a little bit and if we like we could have school dinners

• 6    HAYLEY TOWNS // May 10, 2007 at 12:21 pm

  I think that the idea about being able to pick next year.

• 7    HAYLEY TOWNS // May 10, 2007 at 12:24 pm

  sorry, i meant to say i like the idea about it

• 8    Michaela Garrow // May 13, 2007 at 9:03 am

  I think to be able to choose different tipes of healthy foods is a great idea! I would like different tipes of curry to try and lots of chicken and salad.I would like to try new things and for other people too.If we have tasty but healthy foods much more often probably more people will have school dinners more often!Lets hope more people will have shcool dinners.Fingers crost.

• 9    Jelena at home // May 18, 2007 at 10:47 am

  It would be nice if we had hot paninis with different fillings so people can have food hot and fresh from the oven.Also we could have homemade burgers with tomato relish for people who like it spicy and no tomato relish for people who dont like it spicy.

• 10    emily pollitt // May 18, 2007 at 12:28 pm

  i think this food 4 thought is very good because it is all home made and it is much more healthier.Also it is different than the other,horrible greasy food

• 11    Emily Mackriel // May 18, 2007 at 2:41 pm

  I think it would be good if we could have a change and have more healthy
  food rather than fatty.YUCK!

• 12    Emily Mackriel // May 18, 2007 at 2:44 pm

  SORRY I submitted when I hadn’t finished writing.OOPS

• 13    Thomas Mackriel // May 18, 2007 at 3:12 pm

  I think that the school should have a wider range of food instead of the
  same old things every week e.g. fish, salad, meat,jelly

• 14    Mrs Pritchard // May 21, 2007 at 4:39 am

  I have not had school dinners for a long time but had a very pleasant surprise last week when I tried the roast pork dinner. It was delish delosh! I especially liked the fact that the vegetables were cooked nicely and were not too soggy! The roast parsnips were lovely and I enjoyed the apples sauce with the pork as this is my favourite! I always used to eat more apple sauce than pork when I was a little girl and my mum used to tell me off! “No more apple sauce until you’ve eaten more pork and vegatables!!
  So, I shall definitely be trying school dinners more often all look forward to all the ideas which Pip has for exciting new menus. Give her lots of ideas and get blogging!!!!!

• 15    sarah jones // May 22, 2007 at 3:40 pm

  i really think that food for thought is a good idea becuase pip the dinner lady gives us a choice for next year. i would like to see on the menu fish fingers, roast dinners and orange and apple juice. I would also like to have filtered water rather than from the taps!

• 16    Mrs Turner's class // May 23, 2007 at 10:07 am

  I agree with Sarh.J. haveing filterd water is much nicer than tap water and it tastes better ,much better!!!!

• 19    maria // May 24, 2007 at 12:54 pm

  I agree sarah aswell beause it is much colder and much better!!!!!!!!!!!!

• 20    nicole // May 24, 2007 at 2:23 pm

  i would like milkshakes and home-made burgers with low fat chips

• 21    Mrs Pritchard // May 25, 2007 at 8:19 am

  After the lovely roast pork last week, I decided to try school dinners again twice this week. I really enjoyed the roast beef, especially the mashed potato and the gravy! Delish delosh!!! I also enjoyed the curry which had really lovely chicken in it! The fruit salad was lovely and fresh too.

• 22    gemma dakin // May 25, 2007 at 10:14 am

  I was just reading some comments and the one that catched my eye was hayley ts and i think home made burgers is a lot more nicer and i think there will be more dinners if you made everything that can be made mke it home made

• 23    Matthew Belfield. // May 25, 2007 at 1:54 pm

  I think that food 4 thought is a very good idia because children can choose what they want and hopefully the majority of us will be on scool dinners.
  I think it wouldbe a good idia to have the following for our summer menu:
  *Chiken and vegetable skewers
  *Home-made vegtable burgers in a bap
  And for afters:
  *Summer fruit jelly
  *Strawberries and dipping chocolate.

• 24    matthew's mum // May 25, 2007 at 2:00 pm

  I think Nicole had a good idea when she suggested milkshakes – nice and cool for the summer! How about smoothies too?

• 25    rebecca shaw // May 26, 2007 at 7:29 am

  I think that this will attract more and more of us to have the nicer school diners next half term and I think we should have so cake more often.

• 26    callum leech // Jun 1, 2007 at 2:27 pm

  I think that drinks in school dinners should be free and we should have a choice of fruit smoothies, cranberry juice and grape juice

• 27    Mr. Doodson // Jul 8, 2007 at 4:06 pm

  I tried some of Pip’s school dinners at the Summer Fayre on Friday. I think it was a really good idea to have dinners from next term’s menu for everybody to sample for FREE! Wow! I really enjoyed the pasta, pizza and lasagne (Italian food is my favourite), but apparently the Balti was really tasty too! I’m not surprised so many more children are choosing to have school dinners at Muxton now!

• 28    Mrs Pritchard's class // Jul 10, 2007 at 10:24 am

  We thought that the idea of Pip setting up a stall during the summer fair was a great idea. The children from our class thought the food was wonderful. Amber said that all the dinner menu’s are getting better and better!

• 29    amber newton // Jul 11, 2007 at 2:55 am

  I think that Pip is making lovely school dinners. I really like
  the italian bolognaise and the tuna wrap how about everyone else?

• 30    amber newton // Jul 11, 2007 at 11:50 am

  I think that people should be having school dinners because
  one its healthy and two its really nice i know this because i
  have all the time now.

• 31    Callum Parrish in Mrs.Sleighs class // Jul 21, 2007 at 11:19 am

  i have really enjoyed the school lunches this term.i am really looking forward to trying them in september. i think that pip is a great cook!!!!

• 32    Jonathan // Jul 29, 2007 at 5:09 pm

  I think we should have different types of bread like ciabatta

• 33    rhys gettings // Oct 9, 2007 at 1:04 pm

  i thinck the mettle cutallrey is munch better than the plastick ones

• 34    natalia alexander & zoe clark // Oct 15, 2007 at 2:19 pm

  we both think that the water provided on the table doesnt taste very nice and that means we cant have a drink because it didnt taste good.

  Please could you give us a range of drink on the table e.g blackcurrent squash, orange squash/juice, milkshake…..

  Thank you…..

• 35    Mr Doodson // Oct 17, 2007 at 12:49 pm

  Hello everyone! Hope the new school year is going well for all! I have got to tell you that you are so lucky with your school dinners – they are absolutely delicious compared to my new school! Errrr – Yuk! Hope you are all enjoying the new menu that the school council and all classes helped to design last year! Mr D

• 36    Jessica at home says // Jan 28, 2008 at 2:52 pm

  This was last year and i can remember the food that we had.
  it late now but if we do it again then we could have like 3 or 4 diffrent types of drinks that we could choose from and you would only be allowed 2 glasses of whatever you had choosen or you could have one of each mabey.

• 37    callum parrish // Jan 31, 2008 at 1:42 pm

  i have school dinners on a wednesday because i like the roast.i would have more school dinners.i also agree with jessica that we should try different things again

  I would pefer pure juce, not juce from concentrate.

  (HERE ARE SOME EXPLANATIONS/DETAILS, SOME OF LARGE PARGRAPH IS UNECCIERY INFOMATION)

  Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars (England) Regulations 2003 Guidance Notes
  Thursday 10 July 2003

  The new legislation will replace the Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars Regulations 1977 (as amended) which currently apply to the whole of Great Britain.

  The legislation will assist consumers by requiring a clearer distinction between juice obtained directly from fruit and that obtained by the reconstitution of concentrated juice.

  This will be achieved by the use of the product name ‘fruit juice’ for juice produced directly from fruit; and the use of the name ‘fruit juice from concentrate’ for that made by reconstituting fruit juice concentrate.

  In future, the wording ‘from concentrate’ will be an integral part of the product name, thus drawing the attention of consumers more readily to the method of production. Juices made by mixing fruit juice and fruit juice from concentrate will be labelled as ‘fruit juice’ with the additional wording ‘partially made from concentrate’.

  An explanation of these terms is given separately. These product names will be used in the labelling of juice and also to describe juice where it is included in the ingredients listing of other foods.

  When so used in labelling, the name of the fruit from which the juice was extracted should replace the word ‘fruit’ in the product description, for example, if the juice was extracted from an orange, and was not concentrated, the product name would be ‘orange juice’.

  The parts of the ‘fruit’ from which is permitted by the legislation to extract the juice are given in Schedules 1 and 2.

  The legislation will also permit the addition of vitamins and minerals to fruit juice (with prescribed labelling), whilst maintaining existing rules on the addition of sugar, acidifying agents and ascorbic acid.

  In addition, the new Regulations will bring methods permitted for the production of concentrated citrus juices (e.g. orange, grapefruit) more in line with those allowed in some major producing countries, such as the USA, where water-extracted juice can be incorporated in juice pressed from the fruit.

  I think that the school dinners are good but you could provide sandwiches for summer and I also think milk shakes and smoothies are a good idea
