• Tuck Shop

  Fri 28 Jan 2022

  In response to feedback from children and parents/carers, we are delighted to be launching a Tuck Shop after the half term break. 

  We are running this, on a trial basis initially, for our junior children (Y3 - Y6). Our infant children (YN - Y2) shall continue to have access to free fruit on a daily basis. 

   

  The Tuck Shop is being run by our catering company Dolce and will be entirely cashless. Therefore, if your child wishes to purchase something, they must have money credited on their account. You can add additional funds by following the instructions on the video below:

  Children will have a maximum limit of £1.30 per day (to enable them to purchase both a drink and some food if they would like to). 

  Of course, this is entirely optional and children in our junior classes con continue to bring their own healthy snack/drink if they would like to. If the Tuck Shop proves to be popular, our catering company shall look at increasing the menu options.
