NSMW is going global as we want pupils to learn about food from around the world. We're focusing on five countries so you can organise a school lunch promotion around India, Mexico, China, Italy and the UK. You could have a themed menu with tasty treats for the pupils to try, decorate your school dining hall with flags, dress up in clothing from your chosen country and even play music whilst pupils eat. There's lots of downloads to help you promote your day including an assembly about food from these countries.
The day is supported by Bernard Matthews Foodservice and their Big Green Tick range of British turkey products. Your school can enter their competition to win a Get Travelling Day as well as download their toolkit that includes activity placemats, posters, an educational Snap game, recipe cards and lots more. Find out more about their turkey products and the fantastic competition up for grabs at www.iloveschoolmeals.co.uk/bernardmatthews.

Ideas for Schools
- Decorate your school dining hall with flags or other materials from your chosen country. Staff and pupils could dress up in costumes from the schools chosen country.

- Download and print the Bernard Matthews Foodservice Activity Sheet and laminate it to make a place mat for each child.
- Pupils could create some music from one of the chosen countries in their music lesson or you could invite a local dance group in to do a themed dance.
- Print the educational Snap Cards for pupils from the online toolkit so pupils can learn as they play.
- Ask pupils to write a blog about a country they have visited and send the links to nsmw@avfmarketing.co.uk so we can promote them.
