We want to remind parents and carers that Goring Primary School endeavours to be a nut free school in order to best manage the risk of allergic reactions to nuts and keep our children safe.
Packed Lunch
If your child prefers to bring a packed lunch from home, we kindly ask that you support us in encouraging balanced and healthy choices. The NHS recommends the following for a healthy lunchbox:
- Starchy foods like bread, rice, potatoes or pasta
- Protein foods like meat, fish, eggs or beans
- A dairy item, like cheese or yogurt
- Vegetables or salad and a portion of fruit
Please be aware that we do not allow fizzy drinks or sweets in school. We encourage a balanced approach and ask that you avoid including high amounts of chocolate, confectionery, or processed foods in your child’s lunch.
Fruit & Milk
Playtime Snacks
At playtime, snacks must be fruit or vegetable-based only.
Water Bottles
To support healthy hydration, we ask that water bottles contain water only. Please do not send juice, squash, flavoured water, or any other drinks in your child's water bottle. Water is freely available throughout the school day, and children are encouraged to refill their bottles as needed.
Milk

The Government currently provides one piece of fruit each day for all infant children. This is offered to the children at morning break. Junior children may bring a piece of fruit for morning break. Milk is provided free of charge to all children under the age of 5. Visit the Cool Milk Website to register - Cool Milk Parent Information |
Birthday Celebrations
Due to the new guidance in relation to allergies, we must remind parents that we are not able to hand out sweets or food for birthday celebrations in school. We understand that birthdays are special occasions, and we will continue to celebrate your child's birthday in class in other meaningful ways.
Below are excellent websites with hints and tips about creating varied and healthy lunch boxes.
