Learning is hard work!

morning session depending on when it is convenient to the classroom routine

Appropriate snacks would be boiled eggs, tuna, cold meat, fruit, vegetables, extra sandwiches, yoghurt. (If you are unsure please check with your class teacher)

Our request that this snack does not contain unnatural sugar.
