School Meals
Parents can decide whether their children have a school meal or bring a packed lunch. Please note that we are a nut free school. We have a number of children in school who would have a severe reaction if exposed to nuts or their derivatives, therefore, please ensure that you do not provide them as a snack or in lunch boxes.
School meals are ordered on a daily basis in class. Payments for school meals are made on line via School Gateway. School meals currently cost £2.65. All children in KS1 are entitled to receive a Universal Infant Free School Meal. We are currently operating a smaller menu, a copy of which is available to view below.
Information on School Food Support, the providers of school meals, can be accessed via this link. Legislation changes from 19th December 2014 require all food businesses to provide information on all allergens contained within food. Current menus can be viewed here, that include the allergens information.
