The easy answer is unless they get free school meals, take a packed lunch as thousand of adults do.
It's cheaper and you can eat it in the playground (if you've got one) in the nice summer sunshine.

Fly the flag the right way
RE: Scouts, Cubs and Beavers on march (ET, April 26).
It was great to see so many youngsters attending the St George's Day Parade last Sunday. Perhaps you could get one of the young Cubs or Scouts to point out to the management that the Union Flag has been flying upside down above the Great Northern Hotel all week.
