FIT FOR A KING

Prince George starts school this week and you won’t believe what his dinners will look like

FOR most children, term-time lunches consist of a cheese sandwich, a juice carton and a bit of fruit, but school grub for the future king is a little bit different.

Prince George, like many four-year-olds, is packing up his pencil case and heading into school for the first time this September.

As the future King of England, the tiny tot will have a slightly different experience of school dinners than most of us.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have opted to send their first born to the rather posh south London school St Thomas's of Battersea.

The exclusive establishment charges the princely sum of £17K-a-year for their students, which undoubtedly means a good menu.

The sweet four-year-old will not be subjected to turkey twizzlers but instead whole-wheat twisty pasta, Mediterranean couscous and baked smoked mackerel served on a bed of puy lentils.

The fresh menu of organic fruit, vegetables and meat doesn't end there.

Rather than a portion of sloppy shepherd's pie that we were all so accustomed to, he will chow down on a scrumptious-sounding lamb ragout with garlic and fresh herbs paired with organic grated cheese and batons of carrots and cucumber.

And things only get better as we turn our attention to dessert.

Where we suffered through a square of sponge drowned in questionable lumpy custard, the little prince will enjoy a luxury steamed jam and coconut sponge with custard.

Alternatively, wholesome oatmeal and raisin cookies are on the menu along with a fresh banana milkshake.


MAKING A MEAL OUT OF IT These retro school lunches show how dramatically meals have changed over the years… so how many do YOU remember?


Earlier this year we brought you news of the one type of food the Royal Family are BANNED from eating when they’re out.

And these are the three surprising foods the Queen won’t eat, according to her former chef.

While Paul Burrell claimed the Queen eats her bananas with a knife and fork, and the internet couldn't believe it.
