Families receiving some benefits are entitled to Free School Meals. Please contact the school secretary if you think you may be eligible.
Packed lunches
Packed lunches from home should be brought into school in a secure lunch box. Please note, fizzy drinks, cans and chocolate/sweets are not permitted.
Fruit
Our school is part of the National scheme to encourage children to eat 5 portions of fruit or vegetables a day. The scheme provides fruit or vegetables free to all children in Reception and Key Stage 1.
Water
Every child has a water bottle in school. There is a chilled pure water machine that is available for the children to replenish their bottles.
Staff will make sure that the children are aware when they can access their water bottles, this may vary from class to class.
