Hot Lunches
Hot Lunches at The Mercy
Here at The Mercy, we are proud to partner with The Lunch Bag to provide hot, nutritious lunches to our students every day. This initiative is part of Ireland’s School Meals Programme, which aims to support child nutrition and reduce food waste.
Meals are freshly prepared using locally sourced ingredients from trusted Irish suppliers, and each dish is designed to meet high nutritional standards. With plant-based options and clear Nutri-Scores, parents can feel confident that their children are enjoying healthy, balanced meals.
Delivered in insulated containers and reheated on-site, lunches arrive warm and ready to enjoy, thanks to the care and dedication of Majella and Amira, who ensure every meal is perfectly prepared and served with a smile.
Our students love the variety and taste, and many have become more adventurous eaters thanks to the daily menu. We’ve seen first hand how a good meal can boost energy, focus, and happiness in the classroom.
It’s more than just lunch, it’s a step toward better wellbeing and brighter learning for every child.
