Hi Dasalo

Thank you for yr info abt the canteen food .
So if we prepare food for our DC do they hv microwave that our DC can warm it up or they just eat it cold . Very worry about this as she will be in Dance n she stay FULL day in campus so I m worried .

Hi. I pack lunch for my daughter in a Japanese thermos container, or hearty sandwiches, lots of carrot and cucumber sticks, and nut bars (Uncle Toby’s or GNC). Whenever possible, extras include sausage buns or plain waffles, chocolate bread. It’s impossible to pack all the meals and most days one meal is outside which I leave it up to her. They are allowed to have meals out of school when dance starts late.


Chicken Rice at Dhoby Exchange is a fav, so too is the Sushi shop in the Cathay basement. POMO basement had some food outlets they like.

My thoughts are : It’s secondary school, you cannot worry about or cover all contingencies, you have to let go at some point. Teenagers will not deliberately starve themselves and once they have friends, they tend to want to eat where or what their friends eat. Fruit or Nut bars are great smack options, especially before dance. Just remind them to take healthier choices rather than fast food all the time.

Thank you - dance and theatre.


You have given me some ideas of what to pack .
The reason I ask is because if they stay late in school n in between lesson at least they get some bites n not go hungry.
I m Sorry I m abit over protective especially this girl of mine n I know I need to learn to let go …
I heard that in Dance Faculty , they will tell the students if they put on weight …
So the choice of food may make a difference .
