Infant Universal Free School Meals

All children of Infant school age are entitled to a free hot school lunch each day.  Meals are served to all children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2.

 

Junior Paid School Meals

For children in Years 3 – 6, paid hot lunches are available at £2.45 per day,  payable via our online payment system, SchoolMoney.

Those entitled to a Free School Meal will continue to receive a hot meal in Years 3 - 6.  See section below about how to apply for Free School Meals.

 

Packed Lunches

If you do not wish your child to have a hot meal, please supply your child with a packed lunch.  It is expected that a child’s packed lunch provides a balanced meal – sweets and chocolate are not allowed.  Please provide a drink – juice or water – no fizzy drinks are permitted.

Drink to Think

Each child may bring a named, clear, plastic, ‘sports’ type lid bottle of water in addition to their lunch time drink.  This will remain with them during the day for frequent sipping.  This is to help prevent dehydration and therefore help the children concentrate for longer periods.
