Dear Parents/Carers,

We are, at the moment, monitoring the waste that unfortunately children are throwing under the tables in the dinner hall.

It is clear that some of the waste could be avoided. We are hoping parents could involve children in the making of packed lunches, so that the children are aware of what is in there and hopefully like it!

Very often we get whole pieces of fruit and full sandwiches thrown. On the rare occasion that we catch the children, they always say they ‘don’t like the food’ and ‘I didn’t want mum/dad to see I hadn’t eaten it’.

As you know, it is very important for children to get a good lunch, so that they can function properly in the afternoon.

Thank you for your continued support.

Miss Cook
