A healthy diet is key to a child’s learning

Richard Hall —

Everything they put in their mouth generates the energy they need.

Not every family finds this easy. But please remember it is ok to ask for help. Vulnerability is a positive manly trait. 

To help out, the school has made it a priority to provide healthy food.

For instance, we are very lucky to partner with Harraways of Dunedin. They provide a free nutritious breakfast for any boy, every day. Porridge is a great way to start the day.

We are also able to provide a free lunch should your son need it. I know one staff member who puts $150 of his own money, each term to the canteen for just this purpose. Another puts $500 to the school activity accounts so boys do not miss out.

So please, help us help others, and make asking for help a positive.
