    Olive, DD is in grade 4 this year and she goes to school in a neighboring suburb to you. The whole school eats lunch inside then goes out to play after that. The only problem with it if you have a slow eater (like my DD) they don't get time to finish eating. For whatever reason (whether it's her own thinking or they're not encouraged) she won't finish it outside.

    Anyway, my main advice to you is LABEL EVERYTHING!!!!!

    Eta: just asked her and it's her choice not to finish outside because (1) she has seen other kids get knocked and have their sandwich knocked from their hand and she doesn't want it to happen to her and (2) I still use plastic wrap on her sandwich and she isn't allowed to take plastic wrap outside. I told her i wont wrap it this year so maybe that might make a difference lol
