Proteins are essential nutrients that work as the building blocks of our bodies.

​It’s especially important for kids’ growth and development, it also provides the fuel and energy their bodies need to move and be active through their school day.​

But protein can be one of the hardest things to pack into lunchboxes. ​

Let’s fuel your child’s day with these protein-packed stars to include in your school lunchboxes:  ​

  • Tub of natural yoghurt with frozen fruit  ​
  • A boiled egg  ​
  • Lean meat sandwich like chicken (try to avoid processed meats)  ​
  • Veggie sticks with hummus  ​
  • Tinned tuna with quinoa  ​
  • Cheese stick ​
  • Wholegrain bread ​
