MEAL PROPOSAL
This educational project was born with the vision of reaching food sovereignty as soon as possible. That is why, starting in September, part of the work with the entire educational eco-community will revolve around agroecology and food self-sufficiency.
The ecological and healthy food – vegetarian / vegan with a gluten-free and sugar-free option – is cooked and offered in our place to avoid waste, comparisons and temptations and, above all, to promote sustainability and sharing.
The children will always have an access to fresh, seasonal fruit.
At About 10: 00h children will be offered a toast of homemade spelt / rye bread and organic ? with avocado – gluten-free option possible – and a glass of homemade vegetable milk.
At 1:00 pm – kindergarten group – healthy lunch – at least 3 days / week different versions of legumes: patés, hamburgers, etc. –
The primary education group – we are still considering the needs of the families in order to establish the timetable.
The cost per individual day per meal will be 6 euros if the children are younger than 6 years. It will be 8 euros for children above 6 years old.
For those who choose the monthly dining option (mandatory for the kindergarten group) the monthly cost will be only:
100 euros (> 6), that is, 20 euros discount -5 euros a day.
