Lunch Club
There is a lunch club offered Monday - Thursday from 11.50 - 12.50 (1 hour).
There is no lunch club on a Friday, as pre school will be closed after the morning's settling in session for 2 year olds.
At the start of lunch club all children will be supervised to go to the toilet and wash their hands.
The children will then eat their packed lunches together around the tables with the staff.
Please send the lunch in a chilled lunch bag. The food will not be refrigerated at preschool, but will be placed in a designated area until lunch time. The preschool is not set up to reheat hot meals so please send a picnic style lunch.
What to bring?
Bearing in mind that the children will have approximately 30 minutes to eat their lunch please don’t pack a feast!
Lunch bag suggestion:
- Sandwich
- a piece of fruit
- a healthy snack (cereal bar, yoghurt (with spoon))
- Preschool will offer them water but feel free to pack a drink (not fizzy)
In line with the Primary School, we ask children not to bring sweets into the Pre-school.
Healthy Eating Policy and Allergies
The children will be encouraged not to share food, however as a precaution please avoid sending anything containing nuts. We appreciate that lots of products can not guarantee they that don’t contain traces of nuts. We are not suggesting that you don’t send these, but we are aiming for a common sense approach.
You will already have informed us about any allergies through the registration process. Staff will continue to be vigilant in this regard, as they are at snack time.
After lunch the children will have an opportunity to play/have quiet time before being picked up or staying for the afternoon.
