LUNCH POLICY AT ROBERT SMITH SCHOOL

Due to having no patrols over the lunch hour we recommend that students stay at school for lunch.
Students who stay at school for lunch will eat at their desks supervised by educational assistants.
Please note that our lunch time has changed with the Balanced School Day. Students will
have from 12:45 1:10 to eat their lunch and afterwards they will go outside to play on the
playground.
Students who stay for lunch must:
eat quietly
be respectful of others
not share or trade lunches
stay seated in their own classroom

Because we have students in our school with life threatening allergies we ask that peanut products be
kept at home. We realize this may be an inconvenience; however, we want to ensure the safety of all
of our students.
Please note that if students are going home for lunch they will require a written note in their
planner from their parent/guardian. Students are not allowed to go to restaurants and/or local
businesses during the lunch hour unless they are accompanied by their parent/guardian.
Please fill out the bottom portion of this letter and return it to school as soon as possible.
Thank-you,
Mrs. L. Minaker
Principal
