A team of teachers, teaching assistants, class councillors from each year group and school governors work alongside the local authority to promote a healthy attitude to lifestyles for our children. We have worked alongside various professions and outside agencies to give our children a full and wide curriculum. Dentists, nurses, sports coaches have visited our school to work with the children. School meals are varied, nutritious and the children are encouraged and advised to make healthy choices! After school clubs ensure the children are kept active and develop an interest in physical activities. We have catered for the children’s emotional needs by employing staff who can work alongside the children to ensure emotional well being. In all, we are pleased to say we are a very health conscious school!
Each morning, children select their meal choice from an interactive display; they can view the meals available so they know what they are choosing. At home, parents can use their Parentpay log in to view and book meals in advance.
Article 24: Every child has the right to the best possible health and the right to nutritious food.
