Meetings are held once a month in the school staffroom. The workload is not huge. It is a great way to meet people and get involved with the school.

DENTAL CLINIC
Remember breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Breakfast means breaking the fast. Breakfast gives us more energy and concentration levels. It also lessens the need for sweet sugary snack foods such as cakes and biscuits, muesli bars and fruit roll-ups. It is a relatively inexpensive, quick and simple meal to prepare.
