Fellside School Council are proud to present...
The Super Snack Box!
The School Council and five members of Year 5 have been working together to build up their very own business- a healthy, profit making tuck shop!
It all began when several children pledged to create a healthy tuck shop in their election speeches. Mrs Lamb thought this was an excellent idea so decided to help the children do something about it.
Mrs Lamb contacted 'Fruit to Suit', a company that specializes in healthy snacks for schools, and arranged for Lisa to come in and give us some training.
We thoroughly enjoyed our training day! The children were given jobs from marketing directors to finance managers. We learned how to check an invoice, stock take, make an order, balance a float and most importantly... we sampled the snacks and picked our favourites!
The children then worked very hard to promote the tuck shop. They made posters, wrote letters to the children's families and gave an assembly to all of Key Stage Two.
The big day finally arrived and the first tuck shop took place on Friday 2nd December. All the hard work and preparation paid off and the children are now eager to continue the hard work.
The tuck shop will be open every Wednesday playtime from now on, in the Key Stage Two yard. All snacks are 40p, contain no traces of nuts and are healthy too.

Presenting our ideas to KS2 in our assembly.
The big day! Our healthy tuck shop.
