International School Meals Day (ISMD) is celebrated annually on the second Thursday of March, so in 2026 it will be on Thursday, March 12th. It’s a great opportunity to raise awareness about healthy eating and the importance of nutritious meals for children globally.
If you are a teacher looking for ideas to bring International School Meals Day and plant-rich school meals into the classroom, here is a special set of resources dedicated to the theme as part of our Canteen to Classroom programme.
