I personally think kids should bring their own food, however i agree free food is also a good choice for parents.
To start with, if every child bring their own food then school doesnot need to worrry about the allergies of kids as the food provided by their parents will not contain any allergic ingredients and instead they can utilise their time to play activities with kids.It can be a difficult task for school to order so many dishes as per child reqirements, also the distribution of right food needs much attention.
In addition to, if child bring their food it will add variety and child will get to learn about diffferent cultures. For example, north indian food has different spices as compare to south indian food.
Moreover, child can learn sharing their food with their peers, they can offer food which has different taste and spice level.Also, home made will be more nutrient as comapre with ordered food. There will be no risk for food poisoning because sometimes outside food is not prepared with good hygien.
In the end, i would say it is my personal opinion but i willl accpet the decision made by school authority.
