Useful information
Please send a small, healthy snack (just 1 item) into school with your child in a disposable named bag and a named water bottle, no juice please.
Please ensure ALL your child’s clothing has names on it. As they go through the wash names do tend to fade so please keep checking to ensure that things don’t go missing, especially jumpers and cardigans.

If you wish to provide you child with a packed lunch could it please be in a named disposable bag.
