Trees
We are delighted to have received a delivery of trees from the Woodland Trust to plant in our wildlife area. We hope that groups of children will be able to plant these throughout next week, so please ensure that your child has outdoor footwear or wellies in school as they may be digging.

School Lunches
Next week we will be on Week 3 of the lunch menu below.
Children can decide daily whether they are having a school dinner or packed lunch.
Please ensure you discuss the menu each day with your child so they can decide what they would like to order. Once they know their choices, they will choose this each morning with their teacher during registration.
Each day there are 3 choices, either the hot dinner, the sandwich or the jacket potato with a choice of topping. The sandwich and jacket potato always come with a selection of vegetables/salad on the side and have the full pudding choice for that day.
