Lunch Today

Unfortunately, the deep fat fryer in the school kitchen has broken down today meaning that Pippa is unable to cook the children chips for lunch.  We are sorry that lunch will not be as previously advised.

Could you be missing out?

Have your circumstances changed over the last year?  If so, your child may be entitled to Free School Meals, see the qualifying criteria below.

Even if your child is in Class 1 or 2 and entitled to Universal Infant Free School Meals, applying now means they can continue to receive a free meal in Key Stage 2.  Schools are also provided with additional funding called Pupil Premium to support or enhance the learning of those pupils who receive free meals.

Claiming doesn’t mean that your child has to take a school meal every day, they can still bring a packed lunch if they wish.

You can apply quickly on-line at www.shropshire.gov.uk/free-school-meals/apply-for-free-school-meals or completing the application form below and e-mailing to fsm@shropshire.gov.uk.

Whittles Bus delayed!

The Whittles bus has been delayed as there is a tractor broken down by the water tower.  He will get to the school as soon as he possibly can but it is very likely that the children who catch this bus will be late.  Whittles phone goes over to emergency calls after 3.30pm but you can still contact them as calls will be diverted to a mobile number.
