Breakfast Club

Breakfast club is running successfully every morning and has done since September. Breakfast club is open to all pupils in Year 7 and Year 8 and is free to children who are in receipt of free school meals, otherwise the charge is £2.50.  Pupils have the chance to select from Danish pastries, fruit, yoghurt, cereal, toast, pancakes, fruit juice and milk.      

   

Pupils have enjoyed socialising and completing fun tasks including quizzes, questionnaires, games and trading cards during breakfast. 

This has been an important part of pupils successful transition from Primary School into Year 7 at Durham Johnston Comprehensive School.  

You can read below some of the comments from pupils describing how they feel breakfast club has supported them.

Following February half term, breakfast club will be offered on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning only.
