Our Breakfast Club is a wonderful way for students to start the day with a full tummy and a positive mindset. We offer a range of tasty breakfast options for children to enjoy before heading off to class.
If you would like your child to make use of our yummy breakfast foods, please send them to school a little earlier so they have plenty of time to relax, eat, and enjoy their breakfast with friends.
Breakfast Club begins at 8:10am each morning. Please remind your child that if they would like breakfast before school, they should head straight to the Canteen when they arrive at school.
We look forward to seeing lots of happy faces at Breakfast Club!
Thank you Esme for running the Breakfast Club. If anyone would like to join Esme you are most welcome.
