School meals

Children are encouraged to have a school lunch. The menus are planned and cooked to provide healthy and well balanced meals at lunch time. If your child chooses to bring a packed lunch we encourage parents to include healthy choices. Please do not send sweets, glass bottles or canned drinks.

Meals are served on a cafeteria/family service system. All  children in Years Reception, 1 and 2  are  now  entitled to a Universal Free School Meal. School meals for Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 must be paid for in advance, online, through the "My Child At School " (MCAS) parent portal. The current cost is £2.60 per day per child (£13 per week). Nursery meals cost £1.90. Payment can be weekly, half termly or termly. Parents' attention is drawn to the fact that refrigerated storage is not available for packed lunches.
