Breakfast Club Information
Trinity Academy has continued their work with the charity Magic Breakfast and Kellogg’s to further ensure that students at the academy are receiving everything they need to thrive in education.
Magic Breakfast is a charitable scheme that ensures no child is too hungry to learn through the provision of healthy breakfast food and expert support to schools. Research proves that a hungry child cannot concentrate and so will miss out vital learning each day. We all know how important fuelling our bodies is; and that this in turn leads to better concentration levels. Kellogg’s has provided the academy with a grant in which to purchase breakfast food for our students. We have done so and will continue this academic year.
Served by members of teaching staff, all students continue to be entitled to a free healthy breakfast if they arrive at the academy between 8am and 8.20am, meaning that no child in the academy will be without the necessary tools to start the day.
ParentPay – Letter to Parent (Online Payments)
Cashless Meal System
Every student has a meal account and their own finger scan ID, which is secure and private. Money must be credited to the student's account before any purchases can be made. Where students qualify for free school meals the appropriate amount is credited automatically each day. Money can be credited to a student's account via ParentPay or a cheque made payable to 'Emmanuel Schools Foundation'
