Packed Lunches
Children may also bring a packed lunch but not hot/fizzy drinks or glass containers. We ask that parents do not include nut products in packed lunches as we have children in school with nut allergies.

Children will receive free milk, a third pint carton up to their fifth birthday. Children over the age of 5 can continue to receive milk in one of two ways: If they are entitled to free school meals (not universal free school meals) milk can be provide free of charge throughout their time at school. Please contact the school office if your child is entitled to free school meals and would like to receive milk.
