NUTRITION

At United School of Panama, the school cafeteria is more than just a place to eat—it’s a learning environment where students are taught about making healthy food choices. Our goal is to foster lifelong habits of mindful eating by teaching students the nutritional value of different foods, including the importance of fruits and vegetables in maintaining a balanced diet.

To ensure that students receive all the nutrients they need, our meals are carefully curated with the assistance of a nutritionist. This guarantees a balanced selection of hot lunches and snacks every day, promoting overall health and wellness for our students.

Allergies

If your child has any food allergies, it’s essential to notify the school administration immediately. Our food provider, Natuviva, works closely with our nutritionist to offer safe and inclusive meal options tailored to meet the needs of students with dietary restrictions.

At ÷ÈÓ°Ö±²¥, all food and snacks are provided on-site for students, teachers, and staff. To maintain biosecurity and promote consistency, no outside food or drinks are permitted on school grounds.
