Lunch Time     

Lunch is an important time for children to break from learning, enjoy eating in a relaxed way and socialising. Lunch time is an hour long and split between playing outside on the grass area & playground and eating inside. Classes have their lunch in our spacious hall.

 

Healthy Packed Lunches

Image result for healthy lunchboxChildren can bring in their own healthy packed lunch from home. Please do this in a named container/lunch box to help your child. We are proud to have been awarded ‘Healthy School’ status and ask you provide your child with a balanced & healthy lunch. Please ensure packed lunches do not contain fizzy drinks, bars of chocolate or sweets. We ask you do not send in nuts/nut products, shellfish or sesame products in your child’s lunch box due to the severe allergic reaction they can cause in some other children.  For some great tips and inspiration for healthy lunch boxes, have a look at these sites:

Alternatively, children can enjoy a hot lunch provided in school by Caterlink. Each day there is a choice of three hot lunches, one will be a vegetarian option – see example menu below. Roast dinner day on Wednesday and fish Friday are always very popular! Hot lunches are selected at registration as soon as the children come into class to allow them to be ordered and cooked. Caterlink lunches can be purchased through Parent Pay – we will share details of this with you when your child starts with us.

We will provide water for all children to drink in school but a named water bottle often makes life easier for them.
