a bottle of water and/or other soft drink. There is
no need to bring any money and please do not bring
electronic games/phones or other valuables on the

DINNER REGISTERS - are taken in class every morning. The children tell the teacher whether they are
having dinners (hot school meal) or sandwiches. There have been a few instances last term of children
being recorded as sandwiches but actually having dinners, and vice versa. Please could you help minimise this
problem by reminding your child whether they are dinners or sandwiches in the morning, as unfortunately, this
does cause confusion and may result in parents being charged for meals not taken thank you.
