​CBS Primary Resume Delivery of School Meal Packages


With schools closed since Christmas due to COVID-19, CBS Primary have once again
resumed provision food packages for its school population. The packages are available to all
boys in CBS. The initiative is funded through the school’s continuing involvement with the
School Meal’s Scheme. Delivery, on this occasion, is being exclusively provided by fourteen
members of school staff, divided into three small groups. The staff drop food to CBS boys
living all around Mitchelstown, as well as in Fermoy, Curraghgalla, Anglesboro, Ballylanders,
Kilworth, Skeheenarinky, Kildorrery and more.
Every Wednesday, bags are packed and sent to the school by School Meals provider,
Glanmore Foods. Co-ordinated by teacher Lianne O’Callaghan, the packages consisting of
fresh necessities eg. milk, butter, bread and other essential perishables are then delivered
to each household. The food packs also include a consignment of fruit and vegetables
provided by Food Dudes. Food Dudes is an award winning healthy eating programme,
developed to encourage children to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables.
While we are in the middle of this third wave, the food provision provides an invaluable link
with families. The staff use the weekly opportunity to provide teaching and learning
resources when needed. A special mention must go to Mairead Sheehan, (Project Worker)
and Gillian Kearney (Home School Community Liaison) who have delivered further resources
to countless homes over the past few weeks.
At the end of January, the staff recognised boys that celebrated birthdays during the month,
with a card and gift being dropped to their house. Happy birthday to those twelve boys! This
will continue for the duration of the school closure.
While all at CBS look forward to the reopening of schools, the staff are glad that they are
able to provide this support for the school community.
