A Christchurch school says it has been provided with contaminated school lunches in a significant health and safety breach.
Haeata Community Campus, which covers from Year 1 to 13, has put up a post on Facebook saying they have recalled all of the lunches due to the contamination, but some had already been eaten by students.
It is asking parents to watch for symptoms of food poisoning such as vomiting and diarrhoea, and says more serious symptoms could include bloody diarrhoea, fevers and dehydration.
The Facebook post said the school will be complaining to the provider.
The school has been approached for comment.
