Yum in a Box

What is Yum in a Box?

A service where parents and staff at schools with no canteen can order a 2, 3, 4 or 5 compartment bento box via an app. Each section of your chosen bento box will have a drop down menu to choose from. Trays are compostable with a recyclable lid. Depending on your child’s hunger levels, our 5 compartment bento boxes cover the whole day so parents don’t need to pack a thing!

Orders are prepared at a council approved location and delivered to your school at a time that has been agreed and arranged with your Principal. For some schools, this is in time for crunch & sip whilst other schools prefer it in time for their first break. Bento boxes will be clearly labelled with students name and year group. They will arrive in cooler boxes grouped in classes for ease of distribution e.g. Year 2. Arrangements will be made with the school regarding where these boxes will be best delivered e.g. to the front office, direct to classrooms or undercover lunch area.

What are the benefits of Yum in a Box?

• Creates an environment that supports and models healthy eating options for students and staff in schools that do not have a running canteen.
• Increased access to, affordable and nutritious foods for students and staff.
• Makes the lives of busy parents easier.
• Reduces single use plastic waste, therefore environmentally friendly.
