OPA Newstead Green Academy is proud be in partnership with Magic Breakfast, providing healthy breakfasts to our pupils so that they are settled and ready to learn.
Magic Breakfast provides OPA Newstead Green with nutritious breakfast food to ensure children start their school day in the best possible way. Breakfast gives children the energy needed for the busy school morning, enabling them to focus on their lessons.
Here at OPA Newstead Green, the vast majority of pupils attend Breakfast Club from 8.15am every morning. As well as eating a healthy and nutritious breakfast with their friends, children enjoy the wide range of activities which are available each day, and enjoy checking in with warm and welcoming adults who are keen to engage them in some good fun before the formal school day begins.
There is a small charge for pupils who attend Breakfast Club of £1.00. There is no charge to pupils who are entitled to a Free School Meal.
We run a FREE walking bus for the pupils in our school. Children in Years 1 - 6 are invited to join us every morning. Our set route starts at the top of Havercroft and we walk down through the village.
Our Walking Bus — where the children walk to school, chaperoned by staff — not only boosts exercise and lowers carbon footprints, but also helps the children see different parts of the community working together. We also teach the skills of how to walk safely, and help to develop their understanding of the dangers of the road and how to avoid them.
The Walking Bus also feeds into the Breakfast Club. Once we arrive at school the children enjoy a delicious, nutritious breakfast.
