Make MHS School Canteen More Vegan-Friendly

The issue

Most lunchtimes, I walk into the school canteen and walk straight out without buying anything. There's nothing I can buy. Almost all foods available contain animal products - and those that don't are nearly always more expensive. 

This petition aims to pressure the school officials to implement any or all of the following initiatives:

- Source more vegan products for the canteen, giving students a wider range of ethical snack options.

- Reduce the number of meat etc. products available, prompting students to perhaps rethink their consumption of such things.

- Lower the price of the few existing vegan-friendly products available to encourage students to make more sustainable choices

If successful, these ideas could then be implemented in other schools in the area.
