Breakfast Club
We are delighted to offer a FREE Breakfast provision in school for our children.
The breakfast provision runs from 8-8.25am and includes toast, fruit, a variety of cereals and fruit juice.
Our breakfast provision supports children in enjoying a healthy breakfast at the start of the school day.
At CDS we believe a healthy school breakfast, without barrier or stigma, can set up children to succeed and give them the very best chance to learn.
Breakfast at home
In a normal school year schools are open just over half the year (taking into account weekends and school holidays). This means even where breakfast is available within school, children are still having breakfast at home almost 50% of the time.
