Grazettes Primary breakfast programme gets a fill-up from RUBIS

A collaborative effort by teachers, parents, and support staff at Grazettes Primary School to ensure every student gets breakfast is being supported with a $4 000 fill-up from RUBIS.

The donation to the school’s breakfast programme is part of RUBIS’ ongoing effort to fulfil its corporate social responsibility by investing in the well-being of young learners. Some of the funds will also be used to meet other important needs of students who require support.

Mellissa Broomes, brand marketing specialist, stated that RUBIS was delighted to positively impact communities and young people.

“It’s an honour to contribute to the Grazettes Primary School breakfast programme and to play a part in an initiative so lovingly managed by the school’s dedicated staff. Together, we can help make a positive difference in the lives of these young students.”

Team RUBIS was also proud to have provided school supplies, Broomes said, including lunch bags, exercise books, pencil cases and pencils.

“Investing in education is investing in the future, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to make a difference,” she said.

Collette Applewhaite, principal of Grazettes Primary School, expressed her appreciation, stating that the donation enhances the school’s capacity to provide a nutritious breakfast and other vital support to students who need it most.

“This contribution to the Grazettes Primary School Breakfast Programme and Benevolent Fund is more than financial support—it is an investment in the well-being and success of our students. We are beyond grateful for the generosity of RUBIS to our school,” Applewhaite said.

“At Grazettes, we believe that nurturing a child’s potential begins with ensuring their basic needs are met. This initiative is a true whole-school effort, with our dedicated teachers, ancillary staff, and parents working together to create a warm, supportive environment where every child can thrive. When we uplift our children, we empower them to reach their full potential—and with the help of valued partners like RUBIS, that vision becomes a reality.”
