Some children stay for lunch and bring their own healthy lunch box with them. In line with our healthy eating policy, we ask that children do not bring sweets
or fizzy drinks. We also remind parents that the lunch boxes are NOT stored in the fridge during
the morning and we advise them to include a cold pack to keep the lunch fresh.
