All children are entitled to a free school meal, although children wishing to have a packed lunch can still do so.
We continually encourage our children to eat healthy food so that they grow into healthy adults. All food served in school has to meet the standards from the Department of Health and we use ISS Education to provide this service. We would urge any parents providing packed lunches to consider guidelines and encourage their child to eat healthily.
We serve dinners from the school hall. There are three sittings which helps to limit the noise and allows more opportunity for outdoor play. Each class has a lunchtime supervisor and there is usually a teacher on duty in the hall to deal with any issues which may arise.
Playtime Snacks/Drinks
As we are a healthy school, children are offered fresh fruit and milk (free to children until the term before their fifth birthday) at allocated times. Children are not allowed to bring their own snacks into school. If sweets or snacks are brought into school they will be confiscated until the end of the day.
Water
All children are encouraged to bring a plastic bottle filled with plain water with their name clearly written on it, to drink in the classroom.
