According to the Councilor for Social Welfare, "the difficulties encountered by some families in the municipality due to the scarcity of resources to provide minors with adequate food for their needs during the summer period (since during the months of July and August There is dining room by the end of the school year), is derived fundamentally from the lack of economic, personal and social resources that leads to a situation of need and social integration.According to the growing demand, the City has launched this school dining service In July and August in two schools, with two shifts in each center from 13.30 to 14.30 and from 2.30 to 3.30 pm, thus being a way to bring families closer to the resource and avoid distant displacements under extreme temperatures. Important to highlight that this way facilitates the provision of the service ".

In an entertaining way, actions will be developed on coeducation, equality, harassment, etc.

With respect to 2016, the first year of this service, several improvements have been incorporated in it:
Increase in the number of dining places to be able to cover the needs of families with minors in the municipality.
They have gone from 60 to 80 places.
The location of the dining service has diversified to facilitate access to the beneficiaries, bringing the resource to two distinct points of the municipality: CEIP El Romeral and CEIP Cervantes.
The menus prepared for the dining room respect cultural diversity.
Minors with intolerances and special needs will be treated according to such situations.
The contract includes ethical and environmental criteria that include ecological food aimed at the best nutrition of minors.
During the month of August the two points where the dining room is located will have complementary activities (since there are scarce resources during that month in the municipality) aimed at providing children with an educational and social integration space.
