We are pleased to announce that our special Christmas Lunch (which includes a vegetarian option) will be on Thursday 20th December 2018. This will be provided for all pupils by the Academy free of charge. We see this as a wonderful opportunity for the pupils to share a meal at this special time of the year. As per the Oakfield tradition, pupils will be served by Oakfield Staff !
You may provide a packed lunch for your child on the day if you do not wish them to participate. Please note the kitchen will not be providing a menu choice on Christmas Lunch day or any break time snacks.
We are happy for pupils to wear their ‘Christmas jumpers’ on this day, however all other items of uniform should be worn. They can of course wear their school sweatshirt if they prefer. Whilst donations to Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Campaign are not required for children to join in, if you would like to make a donation at www.christmasjumperday.org, this would be greatly appreciated.
