Menu
From Term 1 (September 2020) we are trialling a new menu booking system, which will eventually become available online and bookable in the same way as the dinners.
Download: Breakfast Club Menu 2020-21 Term 6
Please make your advanced menu choices and send to the main school email – school@bowsland.org.uk
These choices will remain the same for the whole of the term.
For example, if you book for a Monday; Apple, Toast and fruit, for each and every Monday of Term 1 you book on the ParentPay system, your child will receive this as their choice.
When our new system is available this will be chosen from home, just like the dinners are currently.
