Packed Lunch
Packed lunches may be brought from home and eaten in the dining hall. Drinks can be included in packed lunches in cardboard cartons. Fizzy, sweet drinks or sweets are not allowed. We teach about and promote healthy eating habits at school, so please ensure that your child has a nutritious lunch that will sustain them through the afternoon. Some children in school suffer severe allergies, so nut products are not allowed in any child’s packed lunch OR break time snack.
