PR - please help me decide what to use to pack her lunches

We finally got off the wait list and enrolled in the local Montessori ( I am so excited and also terrified ) and have to start packing a lunch for her.
I am assuming they won't be refrigerating so I need advice on what you all use to pack their lunches snacks. Cooler type lunch bag? Tupperware (bento box style)?

I use this and love it. We send leftovers a lot, so I have two. That way, we usually just serve her lunch at the same time as we plate our dinners and it saves a step rather than having to wash it first. ETA link: https://www.amazon.com/Cool-Gear-Ez-freeze®-Collapsible-Bento/dp/B00BSZJGII

that one looks great. kinda big? Do you have to pack lunches and snacks?

We do a bento box for cold food days with an ice pack in a Zoo owl lunchbox from Skip hop. It's the perfect size. I second a thermos option to keep leftovers warm on other days. It makes it easier to not have to come up with fresh cold ideas every day.

I use the pottery barn kids lunch box and add an ice pack.  I usually pack his lunch the night before, and put the entire thing in the fridge (with lid open), then add the ice in the morning.
