' Early Start' Breakfast Club at St Stephens Community Academy. 
 

St Stephens Community Academy continues to open its doors each morning at 7.45 a.m. to welcome children to Breakfast Club!

  

A huge emphasis will be placed on healthy eating and social skills within the group and there should be time for some fun activities indoors. 

 

Currently, we are offering: Fresh fruit, cereals, toast, crumpets or muffins, porridge (winter months), yogurts, apple and orange juice, milkshakes (strawberry, chocolate or banana - these are VERY popular!) most days.

 

Breakfast Club runs from 7.45 am to 8.45 a.m each day. Children arriving late struggle to eat their breakfast in time to enjoy an activity in breakfast club or join their class mates in the playground at 8.45a.m. We need all children to arrive NO LATER than 8.20a.m to ensure that the club ends promptly to allow staff to prepare for their day in class and the children join their class in the playground.

Cost:  Per child, per day:  £4.00

Your second child charge, per day: £3.50

Your third (or more) child, per day charge £3.00

If you have booked a session but do not attend a refund will not be made (unless due to illness) as food ingredients will have already been purchased and we will need to cover costs incurred.  

Please contact the office for the breakfast club booking form, this gives us a better understanding of your child's preferences and requirements and medical needs.

 

All payments are now made through School Money. You can do this by downloading the School Money app from your app store. PAYMENTS HAVE TO BE MADE IN ADVANCE  Many thanks. 

 

Kellogg's Award for The Best Breakfast Club in the South West

18th May 2023

Yesterday Mrs. Furber, Mrs. Baxter and four fabulous Breakfast Club ambassadors,(Ollie, Alistair, Athena and Maisie) attended the official awards ceremony in the Houses of Parliament held by Kellogg's. Not only was this day (with a very early start!) a fantastic opportunities for our children to visit London but it was wonderful for our amazing provision to be recognised in this wider arena. Mrs. Baxter , our breakfast club manager, was given special recognition for her dedication, care and tireless support for our children and families -rightly so! A huge thank to all who make our provision what it is today , we have a fantastic staff who give the children a positive early start that means they are ready for learning and have a fun , friendly start to their day Thanks also to our school community and local agencies who help to fund this e.g. Launceston Rotary, Tesco, Launceston Food Bank, Family Action and now...Kellogg's . As a school we have won £1000 to spend on our breakfast resources and provision-it sounds a lot but as we all know the cost of living is currently high so it will be used wisely.
As a UNICEF Rights school we know the value of enabling and inspiring our children-every child has the right to have an education and be supported. We know the positive impact our early morning and wrap around care has on our pupils. By enabling parents to go back to work, by supporting children's well being and creating a welcoming school community all can flourish.
The children had a fabulous day, they were an absolute credit to St Stephens Community Academy; how often do you have lunch on The Terrace of the Houses of Parliament and represent your school in such a prestigious event. They were also treated to a ride on the London Eye and had goody bags full of cake, Kellogg's cereals and books written by Marcus Rushford dedicated to all breakfast club children. WOW . Thank you to Kellogg's for enabling this day to happen and for being a brilliant team at organising and coordinating this great event.
Finally a special thank you to Ian Gilbert and Derek Basford -our wonderful minibus drivers who drove us to and from Exeter train station during "out of school hours"!
Once the official press releases are available we will share them with you. Go Team St Stephens Community Academy.

The National School Breakfast Programme

We are delighted to inform you that our application at St Stephens Community Academy has been successful and that 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 now pleased to offer a healthy school breakfast, available to all, and enjoy the benefits that brings, with children settled and ready to learn at the start of the school day. Alongside our ‘Early Start Breakfast Club’, that the children can access every morning from 7.45 a.m., we also offer all our children a fresh warm bagel from 8.45 a.m. in all the classrooms and we’ll make sure late comers do not miss out. The photos show how popular this incentive is proving to be!
