World School Milk Day
The National Dairy Council is delighted to announce that the School Milk Scheme is open for registration for this academic year.
5 Great Reasons Why Your Child Should Register:
- Did you know that three daily servings from the ‘milk, yogurt and cheese’ food group are recommended for 5-8 year olds and five daily servings are recommended for 9-18 year olds?
- Drinking a carton of School Milk each day is a convenient and affordable way to help children meet their calcium needs.
- Milk is a natural source of many other nutrients such as protein, phosphorus, iodine, potassium, vitamin B2 and vitamin B12.
- It’s a delicious and nutritious way to ensure that dairy is included in your child’s daily diet.
- The School Milk fridge supplied by The National Dairy Council ensures that the milk your child drinks is chilled and fresh.
