At Redbourn Primary School we promote healthy eating. Packed lunches should provide a nutritious balanced meal for your child. Children should bring their own cutlery for food items such as pasta or yogurts. Children must not share food and children should be able to open/un-wrap their own packed lunch items.

We would allow:

• A sandwich or flask/container filled with pasta or rice

• Fruit and vegetables (grapes and cherry tomatoes must be cut in half)

• Hummus

• Cocktail sausages (must be sliced lengthways)

• Cheese or yogurt

• A drink such as a smoothie or juice (class water bottles must only contain water)

• Your child may have a small packet of crisps and/or a small dessert such as a chocolate covered biscuit

• Cereal bars NOT containing nuts

We will NOT allow the following:

• Nuts (not allowed due to severe nut allergies)

• Fast food (i.e. McDonalds, chips etc.)

• Chocolate bars (i.e. Freddo, MARS, Rolos etc.)

• Sweets

• Fizzy drink

• Ice lollies

• Cereal bars containing nuts

• Cocktail sticks or skewers

• Chocolate spread containing nuts

• Pesto

• Pine nuts
