School Lunch
Lunch is a time children enjoy together – whether a packed lunch or a school dinner. School dinners are cooked daily on site in our school kitchen. All our meals meet Government standards and are nutritionally analysed. Meals are healthy, nutritious and great value for money. The menu changes termly and is posted on the notice board as well as in this area of the website. We are pleased to announce that meat and vegetarian alternatives will be provided every day. We also offer a halal option daily.
All children in Reception, Y1 and Y2 are entitled to a free school meal. Pupils in Y3, 4, 5 and 6 requiring a school dinner may pay using ParentMail.
Packed lunches may also be brought. Please remember no glass containers and we are a "nut-free" school (protecting pupils with allergies). Lunch boxes should also contain a nutritious and balanced meal. Food containing chocolate, crisps and sweets should not be included in your child's lunch box. We encourage children to become health conscious and eat healthy food.
