A Message About School Lunches
Thank you to all parents in KS2 for your assistance in getting the permissions for our trip to Taunton this week turned around in such a short time.
As I mentioned in my communications around the trip, due to time constraints, the office staff didn't have the capacity to contact parents individually to remind them about giving permission for their children to attend.
In light of how successful this was, I want to see if we can cut down on the number of phone calls we are required to make to individual parents regarding ordering lunches. At present, this takes the office staff a great deal of time, and takes them away from other tasks they need to complete.
We have always asked parents to book meals via Scopay by 12 noon on a Wednesday for dinners required the following week. We have up to this point contacted individual parents who have missed the deadline, but from next week I would like to see if we can show the same levels of engagement we did for this week's trip. So, please be aware that, if no meals are booked for your child by lunchtime on a Wednesday, then we will be expecting children to be sent in with packed lunches for the following week.
Meals can now be booked up until the end of the summer term. All booked lunches will need to be paid for in advance if your child is not in receipt of Free School Meals or Universal Free School Meals.
Thank you in advance for your support in this.
