Packed Lunch
We encourage the children in our school to remain healthy through a variety of ways. We encourage regular exercise, eating healthily and drinking plenty of fresh water during the hot summer months. Our cooks provide a healthy hot lunch each day and we ask those parents, whose children stay for packed lunch, to be aware of the British Nutrition Foundation guidelines for healthy and nutritious packed lunches. As a school we would advise you to follow these recommendations. Our School Council will be promoting healthy eating this year and would like to remind parents and children that it is important to have a healthy packed lunch each day.
Please try to limit the inclusion of the following items in packed lunches:
- Sweets (including Winders), chocolate
- Crisps or any packeted savoury snacks high in salt and fat
- Fizzy drinks/sugary drinks
- Sweet cakes, e.g. sugary cakes, doughnuts
- Sweet nut bars
- Foods containing nuts (Please do not include products that contain nuts – we have children in school with severe nut allergies.)
