IMPORTANT : Forks & Spoons for student use

There is an increasing number of students coming to the office at snack and lunch time to ask for forks and spoons.  We understand that forks and spoons may occasionally be forgotten but we can have 10 - 15 students come to the office everyday during both eating times and it is very often the same students!!

If it keeps happening in such numbers we will have to stop completely.  Our stocks are very low already. We are a sustainable school and should not be using disposable cutlery.

We ask that parents/carers/students check that they have packed appropriate cutlery for the food they supply.
