£1,000 boost to help Spilsby school provide healthy breakfasts

Kellogg’s has awarded the Woodlands Academy £1,000 to enhance its breakfast club whilst celebrating 20 years of supporting schools.

The Specialist Secondary School for SEMH pupils (Social, Emotional, Mental Health) was selected to receive this boost as Kellogg’s announce they are to double their investment in Breakfast Clubs as more and more schools struggle to find the budget to fund this service for their pupils.

Breakfast Clubs help with everything from attendance and attainment to alleviating

hunger and providing pre‐school care.

Sixty-eight per cent of teachers believe pupils would struggle to concentrate in class without their Breakfast Club, according to Kellogg’s research.

Alice Eyre, Headteacher, said: “We are so grateful to receive this generous donation.

"Thanks to the support from Kellogg’s, we can now improve our Breakfast Club services for our pupils.”

Kate Prince, Corporate Social Responsibility manager, at Kellogg’s, said: “We’re proud to have spent 20 years supporting so many schools across the UK.

"We believe all children should have the opportunity to start the day with breakfast, and we know that equipment and resources are just as important to clubs as the food itself.”

Kellogg’s has supported 3,000 school breakfast clubs with funds, food and training

over the last 20 years – that’s 70 million bowls of cereal to children all over the UK

since 1998!
