At My Oasis we recognise that a healthy meal is critical to students’ well-being and their motivation to learn.

Research has shown that young people who eat breakfast and lunch at school rely on school meals for half of their daily energy intake. With food insecurity rates rising due to the economic hardship triggered by the coronavirus pandemic, one in four children are estimated to be struggling with hunger resulting in school meals being essential to more young people than ever. This is why at My Oasis we provide all students with a daily snack and lunch regardless of a student’s free school meal eligibility and ensure these costs are included in those covered by a student’s school. This is one of the ways we try to support families with the cost-of-living crisis and make sure that no young people attending placements with us at My Oasis go hungry.

If you wish to discuss your child's dietary requirements, please contact Charlotte Lowe or Sarah Brady to discuss these further.
