Free Bagel Breakfast

May 2019 

Children cannot wait to get to school…for their free bagel! 

Our school has joined the government’s National School Breakfast Programme (NSBP), which is being delivered by the charities Family Action and Magic Breakfast.  

As a NSBP School we are pleased to offer a healthy breakfast bagel, available to all, and enjoy the benefits that brings, with children settled and ready to learn at the start of the school day.

When the children arrive at school, in class, they can collect their bagel and begin their morning tasks, ensuring all children begin the day well and make sure they are energised for the day ahead.  

Headteacher Christine Peden said: “Since we began the Magic Breakfast initiative, children have been excited about eating with their friends as well as having the role of class bagel monitor.  

“We have seen vast improvements in time keeping, attitude to learning and social interaction. It has been brilliant!” 

The school has funding to provide the free bagel until 2020.
