Healthy Snack Reminder
Dear Parents and Carers,
As part of our commitment to promoting healthy lifestyles and supporting pupils’ wellbeing, we would like to remind families that children should only bring healthy snacks into school for break times.
Suitable snacks include:

• Fresh fruit
• Vegetables
• Plain crackers
• Other healthy, nutritious options

Please note that crisps, chocolate, sweets and other confectionery items should not be brought into school as snacks.
We are also delighted to share that TESCO has kindly provided funding to support our healthy eating initiatives. As a result, we will be purchasing fruit throughout the year so that children can regularly enjoy healthy snack options in school.
In addition, to ensure the safety of all our pupils and in line with our allergy-aware practices, no nuts or seeds should be brought into school. We have a number of children with severe allergies and appreciate your support in helping us maintain a safe environment for everyone.
We also have children with dairy allergies. Whilst cheese may be brought in as a snack, we ask that it is provided in a form that is easy for children to manage and does not create unnecessary mess. Please be mindful of our allergy procedures when preparing snacks.
Next week, we will be hosting a Macmillan Coffee Afternoon to raise money for this wonderful charity. We would be grateful for any donations of cakes, biscuits or other sweet treats that can be shared during the event. (more info to come)
To help keep everyone safe, any donated items that contain allergens must be clearly labelled with a list of ingredients. This is in line with current food information requirements and helps us ensure that those with allergies and dietary needs can make informed choices.
If your donation contains any of the common allergens (such as milk, eggs, wheat, soya or nuts), please clearly indicate this on the packaging or container.
Thank you for your support and generosity. We look forward to coming together as a school community and raising money for such an important cause.
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
Kind regards,
Mr Fox
