    Snacks can make that difference! A healthy morning snack for your child...

    Healthy fruit and veg snacks for morning breaks

    For morning break snacks, it's important to choose snacks that are not only nutritious but also easy to prepare and consume. Here are some healthy fruit and veg snack ideas suitable for morning breaks.

    Below are guidelines from the NHS and Change4life on healthy snacks.

    Please also remember that we are a strictly nut free school.

    We ask for your support to help us adhere to these guidelines at St. Bernard's Catholic Primary School.
    Healthier Break Time Snacks:

    • Chopped up raw vegetables– e.g. carrots, cucumber or peppers
    • Chopped up fruit/whole fruit – e.g. apple, satsuma, strawberries, halved grapes, melon slices
    • Breadsticks 
    • Malt loaf, tea cakes, fruit breads
    • Dried Cereal
