Starting September 1, school meal system in Belarus to change

Starting September 1, the school meal system in Belarus will change. Menus in school canteens will become more flexible, allowing for more frequent inclusion of dishes that children enjoy. Additionally, for students entitled to a second breakfast or afternoon snack, monetary and in-kind nutrition norms will be equalized. Vending machines with products and drinks approved for children will also appear in schools, and the monetary nutrition norms will increase by 5%.
