The breakfast club at Merkinch Primary has received a boost.

The school received the boost as Kellogg’s announced it is donating more money to support breakfast clubs.

Breakfast clubs help with attendance and attainment – in a recent survey by Kellogg’s 68 per cent of teachers said they believed pupils would struggle to concentrate in class without their breakfast club.

Louise James, depute head teacher at Merkinch, said: “We are so grateful to receive this generous donation.

“We have since been able to purchase cereal, bread and other breakfast items for our club.

“These resources will help us to continue to provide our breakfast club services for our children and their families thanks to the support from Kellogg’s.”

Kate Prince, corporate social responsibility manager at Kellogg’s, said: “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.”
