IMPORTANT : Forks & Spoons for student use

An increasing number of students are coming to the office daily to request cutlery for snacks and lunchtime, specifically forks and spoons. We understand that forks and spoons may occasionally be forgotten. However, we now receive 10 - 15 students coming to the office every day during both eating times, which are very often the same students.

As a sustainable school, we try to avoid using disposable cutlery. Once the current supply has depleted, it will not be replaced. In the future, Parents will receive calls to bring cutlery to the school for their students if required. We ask that parents/carers/students check that they have packed appropriate cutlery for the food they supply.
