Our school food
– We want our students to be able to succeed in both their studies and physical training, restaurant manager Mr Patrick Hallbäck says.
According to him a majority of Swedish schools struggle to get the students to eat the school food. At the same time around, 80 tonnes of school food is wasted every day in Sweden, which according to Patrick Hallbäck is due to staff not knowing how much food they should cook. With the help of the new food concept, students at Nordic International School Karlstad eat more frequently in the school restaurant which lowers food waste and is beneficial for the environment.
– We constantly strive to improve and the school food has been one area that we have focused lately. Today we proudly offer both students and staff the benefits of Mitt Käk, Mr Emil Wallin, Principal at Nordic International School Karlstad says.
The students order their school lunch through an app where they every day can select their meal from a large variety. Every Thursday the students make their order for the following week so that the restaurant knows how much food to cook and buy.
