For Parents & Carers
School Meals
Each lunchtime a hot meal (all prepared and cooked on the school premises) is available and all meals are served with vegetables or salad.
The meals are provided by Aspens. Please see the attached current menu and family information.
School dinners are currently free for children in Reception class, Year 1 and Year 2. School dinners for children in Years 3 to 6 cost £2.55 per day. All meals consist of a freshly made two-course meal.
School dinners are paid through the Arbor App – an online payment service which allows you to pay for school items quickly and easily on your smartphone, tablet or computer.
We are a nut free school. As many of our pupils have nut allergies it is imperative that nut related products do not enter the school. |
Please see this term’s menu and ingredients below.
Medical Diets
If your child requires a medical diet due to a food allergy, food intolerance or a medical condition that requires an adapted menu (e.g. carbohydrate count for Type 1 Diabetes), please complete the Alternative Menu Form and return this as soon as possible to the School Office.
Packed Lunches
Children may bring a packed lunch in a named lunch box with a boxed drink or plastic bottle. Please ensure that your child’s packed lunch contains a balanced meal. (Children who consume very high levels of sugar and/or harmful chemicals may find it harder to concentrate on their work in the afternoons). We try to encourage a waste free lunch so that both packaging and food waste is limited. We do not allow glass bottles or cans on safety grounds.
Drinks
Drinking water is available in school. Children will need to be provided with their own reusable water bottle for use in the classroom. Research shows a close link between hydration levels in the bloodstream and consequently in the brain and the ability to concentrate, think and learn.
