Water
It is important that children remain well hydrated during the school day. All children are provided with their first school water bottle for free; replacements can be purchased from the school office or you may provide your own.
Water bottles must only contain water- not squash. It would be acceptable to add ice cubes or fresh fruit if your child would prefer.
Fizzy drinks are not permitted .
Each week 7 lucky children are chosen to sit at the Golden Table- complete with golden tablecloth and candelabras. This is a special reward given by the lunchtime supervisors to the best behaved children, who are given two golden tickets to the golden table. Pupils can invite a friend or relative to have lunch with them on the following Friday. Remember to exchange your golden ticket for an ice cream!
Where possible, ingredients and produce are locally sourced. The map below shows where our food comes from.
