conflicting messages from school this week Tuesday: "dear parent, if you would like a food parcel every two weeks while your child is home learning please let the school know today either by phone or email." Thanks so I rang them yes please heard nothing Thursday. We will be issuing FSM vouchers from next week instead of food parcels. If your circumstances have changed and you think you may qualify please apply online. so I emailed to inform them no food parcel this week been given snotty phone call later that day saying packed lunches are available to collect where was that mentioned in previous messages. Friday: "Dear Parent, we are now issuing vouchers instead of food parcels on a fortnightly basis. They are £12 per week per child so you will receive the first next week so now the vouchers are £12 a week". Ahhhh whatever
