Breakfast Club begins tomorrow at 8:15am. Children should enter via the Main Entrance. Staff from New Stevenston Primary will supervise.

The pricing policy is:

£1.00 per pupil per day, there is a sliding scale where if there is more than one child from the same family attending
- 1st child £1
- 2nd child 50p

The purpose of Breakfast Club is to provide a positive start to the day for our children. It is expected that children will display good behaviour. Anything to the contrary will be communicated to parents immediately.

You do not need to make prior arrangements for your child to come to breakfast club. On the days they are coming they should come to the front doors of the school where they will be brought into the building and go to the dinner hall where they will be registered. Doors will not be opened until 8:15am.
