Healthy School Meals, Milk & Snacks

We promote a healthy lifestyle for all our children;

All children who attend Sŵn y Don have the opportunity to attend our free breakfast club.  Children are admitted from 8.10am until 8.40am, and are then supervised by Breakfast Club staff until school starts at 8.50am.  Children are offered a healthy breakfast of cereal, wholemeal toast, fresh fruit and fruit juice or water.

Foundation Phase children are offered a third of a pint of semi-skimmed milk during the morning.

During morning break children are encouraged to bring a piece of fresh fruit to eat – large oranges should be peeled at home and sent to school in a small container or bag, please do not send in fruit/cereal bars or yoghurt drinks.

Meals are freshly prepared on site, current cost of meals can be obtained from the school office.  Should a special diet be required or if certain foods should not be eaten please notify the Head Teacher in writing, we will be happy to accommodate your wishes whenever possible.  Payment for school meals should be made on the first day of each school week.  Money should be placed in the named money pot or in an envelope.  Cheques should be made payable to Conwy County Borough Council.

The Local Education Authority offers free school meals to children when special circumstances exist.  An application form can be obtained from the Local Education Authority.

Children who wish to bring sandwiches are also catered for; however we ask that you do not send in any glass bottles, cans or sweets as part of the lunchbox.

Children have access to fresh drinking water from the water cooler throughout the day.  Please no not send bottles to school with juice or squash in them – water only.
