Breakfast Club
We run both a free Bagel Bar and free Breakfast Club before school every day.
The Bagel Bar, provides free bagels for children on their way into class each morning. Our Breakfast Club provides free cereals, bagels and childcare.
Breakfast Club is open daily for all pupils from 8am.
To book a place, speak to the school office.
Why is our breakfast club so special?
St. Benedict’s Breakfast Club is a grassroots initiative, founded, and run by school staff, who were passionate to see children have the best start to the day. We are now part of the government Early adopter scheme.

What do our children think?
‘It is important because you can eat breakfast, do some activities and be at school on time’
‘We get to learn about our health. We have time to talk to our friends and play with therm. We play lots of games’
‘You can even make new friends’
