Two students drunk 11 cartons of milk outside after allegedly being refused to bring them inside a school in southern China.

Video filmed in the city of Dazhou in Sichuan Province on September 11 shows two boys squatting down on the ground to try to finish a box of 24 cartons of milk in front of the gate of Dazhou Foreign Language School.

According to reports, the two students are freshmen and one student's grandmother gave a box of milk to him but he was told by a passerby that off-campus food was not allowed to be brought into the school.

Since the boy did not want to waste the milk, he and another boy tried to drink all of them at the school gate.

Adults and the security guard were seen trying to stop them and said "do not drink" repeatedly.

The security guard explained that they did not force the students to drink the milk before entering the school but tried to persuade them to stop drinking.

In consideration of the food safety issues, the school banned off-campus food but they can deposit it in the security office and healthy food like fruits are allowed to be brought in.

Local authorities are investigating the case.

近日，四川达州两名学生因无法带牛奶入校，蹲在门口喝完半箱奶。
知情人称，事发学校是位于四川省达州市渠县的达州外国语学校。当时学生进校时，携带了一箱牛奶。校方工作人员以学校禁止校外食品进校为由，拒绝学生将牛奶带入。“当时两个学生没办法，蹲在校门口就把这箱牛奶拆开，准备将其喝完再进校。”对此，有人质疑学校是为了照顾校内小卖部的生意。
事后校方工作人员表示，因为考虑到校外食品的安全性，所以学校禁止学生带校外食品入校。
15日上午，渠县县委宣传部工作人员告诉记者，目前县里领导已经关注此事，正在进行处理。15日晚些时候，渠县教育局工作人员称，已经对学校的校长进行了约谈，责令限期整改。
湖北易圣律师事务所合伙人律师袁三慧表示，目前没有法律和规章禁止学生带食物进校园。学校虽然有教育管理的责任，也有权倡导学生远离垃圾食物，但不能禁止学生带任何食物进校园，搞一刀切式的管理。如果连牛奶等健康食物都禁止带入，那么学校行为涉嫌管理不当。（视频由四川台提供）
