We kindly ask all families attending to please arrive at All Saints Church in readiness for the performance to start at 9:30am. The concert is due to finish at approximately 10:45am.

We look forward to seeing you there. 

Christmas Lunch - Wednesday 17th December

HOT CHRISTMAS LUNCHES

Hot Christmas lunches will take place in THE SCHOOL HALL Please arrive through the MAIN SCHOOL GATES at your designated time slot and go to the hall where your child/ren will join you. Please ensure you arrive promptly for your time slot to enable the smooth running of the day. Unfortunately, we will not be able to let you in before your allotted time so arriving early will only result in a cold wait!

Once again, the kitchen staff have been kind enough to accept an exceptionally high number of dinners. Please be aware that in order to accommodate these numbers, we have allocated just 10 minutes to each sitting.

Once you have finished your lunch with your child, please leave through the main school gates and your child will be taken back into class.

FESTIVE PACKED LUNCHES

Festive Packed Lunches will take place in the BADGER CLASS and ACORN. Please arrive through the side CHURCH GATE at your designated time slot and go to Badger class or Acorn deck where your child/ren will join you. Please do not come to the school main black gates as we have 250 adults arriving for hot lunch through that entrance. Please check your email confirmation which advises the classroom you have been allocated.

Please be aware that in order to accommodate these numbers, we have allocated just 15 minutes to each sitting.

Once you have finished your lunch with your child, please leave through the main school gates and your child will be taken back into class.

The payment is to be made via your child’s Scopay account and can be found under ‘products’ in the bottom right corner of your app.

Please note that children who are in Foundation Stage or KS1 receive free school meals, so no payment is required, but any adults/toddlers joining them must be paid for. Children in Lower and Upper Juniors will need credit on their dinner account to cover this meal.

Thank you very much for your continued support.
