AnonyMouse_2186 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Ours eat tea at 3.30 - 4pm. This is normally beans on toast, scrambled egg, crumpets, crudites and dips, sandwiches, homemade breaded chicken strips amongst other things. Some of our children are there till 6pm but all parents do provide an evening meal at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Lucy P - that is the thing that is concerning me. We provide much the same as you, but as it is early I am worried that some parents may see this as a substitute for an evening meal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 HI Shelley We do snack at 3:30, and have sandwiches and fruit, soup and rolls, teacakes, pitta bread and tuna and fruit etc.... all is just a snack, ie they only get a tiny bit! All parents are reminded it is only a snack and therefore there child will require tea when they get home.... to my knowledge all parents do provide tea when they get home Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Is there anyone that operates more-or-less within school hours who offers an afternoon snack? Say 9a.m. to 3 p.m.? We find the timing of afternoon snack quite difficult. We usually do it just before 2.30 p.m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
