BREAKFAST CLUB

We operate a breakfast club in school. This is available to school pupils from 8.15-8.45am. Breakfast club costs 20p which is excellent value for money. The club is supervised by a staff member and a register is taken. Money for breakfast can be put onto the lunch cards as we do not accept cash. There are many healthy options available, e.g. fruit juices, milk, cereal, toast. After breakfast pupils have a short time to play games/activities before going out to the yard at 8.45am.

Snack time in the Nursery is a very social and enjoyable time. Each day we try to provide children with a variety of different snacks. At all times we strive to promote healthy eating and as part of this policy some of our snack times are fruit days where we encourage children to eat a range of fresh fruits. Nursery children are entitled to free milk.

If your child has a particular food allergy or medical condition that requires a special diet please inform the head of establishment in order that provision can be made for your child’s needs. REMEMBER WE ARE A NUT FREE ZONE.
