The City of Molina de Segura presents healthy menus for all schools in the municipality which will be provided during the current school year 2012/2013.
The city has 27 schools with dining (8 public schools, three private schools, 5 charter schools and 11 primary schools) and they all participate voluntarily in the Obesity Prevention Program for Children and Youth Molina de Segura.
This year, as a novelty, the menus have been prepared in digital format for viewing, viewing and downloading through the website of the Municipality of Molina de Segura www.molinadesegura.es and each of the schools.

The menus presented are the result of the efforts of many health and education professionals, including pediatricians, family physicians, nutritionists, nurses, public health technicians and technical education, which, along with each school professionals have designed, developed and supervised the work.
The menus are designed with common premises, such as the daily presence of salad, casserole dish unique traditional Mediterranean diet and fruit for dessert.
Menus are 6 weeks with 30 different dishes based on vegetables, rice and pasta, which aims to educate children on proper nutrition and experiment and learn to appreciate a variety of food tastings outside the cafeteria that is going to be very difficult to know.
