New school lunch menus for Tayside primary schools have been launched.
And here are a few of the new dishes which will be served to Angus, Dundee and Perth and Kinross pupils as they return from the Easter holidays and over the next year.
We will continue to publish our weekly reminder of the menu for the days to come on a Friday afternoon, which you can find in the schools hub section of our education page.

Nutritional information
Four new menus have been created by Tayside Contracts, which provides meals for schools and nurseries for Angus, Dundee and Perth and Kinross councils.
These will be rotated on a weekly basis and in place until March 2023.
All schoolchildren in P1 to P5 and those in P6 and P7 whose families meet criteria based on benefits and income are eligible for free school meals.
Nutritional and allergen information for each of the dishes on the menus is available on Tayside Contracts’ website.
Menus are also available for secondary schools in Angus, Dundee and Perth and Kinross.
