School meals are an integral element of the education provided for those of school age. The nutritional objective is to promote the students’ well-being, health and energy. Serving nourishing meals requires seamless co-operation between the school staff and the catering personnel. In addition to providing catering services, we keep Tampere’s schools clean and tidy so that the city’s young people can grow up in a pleasant environment.
