The new school dinners menu will be starting after Easter– see page 5. If you wish to change your child’s meal pattern after the April half term you must email the school office: office@marlandhill.rochdale.sch.uk no later than Thursday 2nd April

Meal patterns are set per half term. School dinners are £3.10 per day and are to be paid on parent mail.

Year 3, 4 and 5 children are invited to go to Hollingworth Lake Water Activity Centre to take part in hour long sessions in kayaking and paddle boarding. The dates and times are as follows:

· Year 4 Wednesday 6^th May 2026

· Year 3 Thursday 7^th May 2026

The children are to come to school in their PE kit and will need to bring swimwear and a towel, plus old pumps/trainers that can get wet. The activity centre will issue wetsuits and buoyancy aids on the day.

The cost of the visit is heavily subsided by school. We are asking for a voluntary contribution of £3, which is to be paid on Parent Mail by going to  payments/shop. Please complete the consent form on Parent Mail, which can be found in the forms section.
