I've taught at several and usually see the kid eating whatever the school has which doesn't look so good. Are the kids allowed to bring their own lunches? I couldn't eat what they were serving to me....

I think they largely go to the canteen. That's from my observations anyway.
A couple kids II teach I asked this very same question, and the response I received was no, everyone eats in the canteen and has the same shitty green pork and sloppy wet white rice with a small slice of vegetables. When I asked if you could bring their own, they had never heard of such a thing, and never heard of anyone doing that.
Hahahaha LMAO thanks Ted you have made my day

I regularly bring my lunch to school (and eat it in the empty classroom).
When I used to eat it in the cafeteria or teachers lounge, I would be criticized endlessly, by the same people, saying the same crap every day.
So, if that is my experience as a teacher, I would imagine that for a child it would be much worse.
sorrel:
you are not being criticised, people are just being helpful.

Thats what I thought at first.
Either way, having the same conversation with the same people every single day, became beyond annoying. So, now I eat in my classroom and live happily ever after. I cant change them, so I avoid them.
sorrel:
I know the joys of being confined to the same conversations with the same people in China. But it sounds l was luckier than you having the opportunity to eat off campus when I wanted !!
GuilinRaf:
Oddly enough, I had better eating options in Guilin than I do in this part of Beijing....
