A school in Haverfordwest has been chosen as a finalist for Wales as part of the annual Kellogg’s Breakfast Club Awards.
If it wins, St Mark’s V A School’s breakfast club will receive a £1,000 cash prize, plus a special party pack to help them celebrate.
The Kellogg’s Breakfast Club Awards champion the people and activities that make Breakfast Clubs so great – from inspirational volunteers to invaluable extra learning sessions.
Around sixty children attend the breakfast club at St Mark’s V A School every morning before lessons start. The school was open during lockdown as a hub school, welcoming vulnerable children and children of keyworkers from their local community and six other local schools. In September of last year, the club has made many adaptations to ensure children are still having breakfast despite the pandemic, such as staggered starts so that numbers can be controlled and breakfasts being delivered to classrooms so that children can still have a great start to the day.
