My son has a shared lunch at school at the end of the week (it's for intermediate aged kids - 11 and 12 years old).The finger food is meant to be NZ inspired!
Any quick and/or easy ideas for what he could take would be welcomed.

Umm mini Mussell fritters, those cheese rolls they make in the South Island, tiny pavlovas(meringues you buy in packets from supermarket) if you want something really easy served with cream or custard and a slice of kiwifruit on top

Thanks for the ideas.I think I'll make Kiwi Biscuits as they will be easy for my son to take to school.

Ha 11 & 12 yr olds aren't going to eat asparagus rolls as yummy as they may be

LOL!I do have to agree with you on that!Maybe add add another 10 or 20 years onto their ages and they will.I love them too, but even my 45 year old hubby won't touch them haha!
Think I'll try out the cheese rolls at home for a quick weekend lunch sometime though - they sound delish.I've been to the South Island and never tried one, so I must add that to my list of foods to try!

Why not!Mine would - and I assume there will also be teachers/other adults present anyway
Mine wouldn't touch cheese rolls in any way, shape or form or mussel fritters as suggested as #2!

Kumara chips or kiwi shaped cookies - it is supposed to be NZ inspired which is why I suggested the asparagus rolls
