As our children head back to school after the long summer break, the start of a new academic year is often one many look forward to – it is an opportunity to meet friends, start in a new class and learn lots of new and exciting things!

We do everything that we can to ensure our children receive the highest level of education and achieve the very best that they can.

There are numerous studies that show that a good, healthy breakfast allows a child to increase concentration in class, learn more and as a result achieve better results.

And yet, the sad reality is that many children, who go to school, cannot afford a good breakfast and as a result, go to school hungry.
