No more toast…
Sadly, after half-term, we will no longer be selling toast at breaktime. We have made this decision based on several reasons. Due to the increase in food prices and electric prices we would need to increase the price of toast to 25p a slice to make sure we are covering costs. We do not think that this would be fair to you.
With changes to the food standards, we would only be able to serve brown wholemeal bread and most children do not like this which would mean wasted food.
Our children in EYFS and KS1 already receive fruit everyday which is provided to schools for free through a Government scheme.
Children in KS2 will be encouraged to bring in a piece of fruit or a healthy snack to be eaten at breaktime. This can include, fruit, vegetable sticks, rice cakes, popcorn, raisins. Unhealthy snacks such as crisps or chocolate bars will not be allowed at breaktime.
Following advice from a visiting dentist, we would encourage children to have only water in their water bottles as the sugar in the juice can have a detrimental impact on their teeth.
