At my primary( elementary) school we did not have any vending machines and we were not even allowed to bring drinks onto premises other than water.

I say it is good for schools to promote health attitudes to food and drink, but parents should also be encouraging similar habits at home.

...Because being open is good

But it kind of sucked, because even with their granola and juice, some of the junk food was cheaper, so when I was in a bind I just bought trash.  Juice, gatorade, flavored water was $1.25; soda was $1.25 - $0.50, and bottles of plain water were $0.50.  Some people bought a bottle or two of soda EVERY DAY, which would have made me ill and broke... but they probably had jobs.  

Yeah, I would have liked it if my school refused to provide us with any soda and junk food.  =/

Now, I really appreciate how health conscientious the faculty/board are. Ironically, back then I was a bit of a caffeine/pop addict. :)
