Nuts (we are a nut-free school)
School provides a mid-morning snack for all students (this is part of the contributions that parents/carers make each term). The snacks are either fruit or yoghurt. We would also like to encourage those students who bring in a mid- morning snack to choose the same.
Thank you for your support in this.
