School Meals

We are a nut free school. Please do not send your child to school with nut products due to allergies.

Children can choose from a school-provided packed lunch or hot meal, or a home-made packed lunch.

We ask for packed lunches to be provided in a named lunchbox or bag. As a 'Healthy School', we encourage parents to provide healthy, nutritious packed lunches and ask that they do not send nut products into school.

We offer a selection of hot school meals each day, provided by Dolce Catering. Children can choose from a variety of nutritious meals, with both a hot and cold option available daily. Meals are accompanied by a healthy choice of sides and a dessert. Meals should be ordered through School Grid.

If you do not have an account set up or need your password reset, please speak to the school office.

 


Free School Meals

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to Universal Infant Free School Meals, meaning they can enjoy a free school lunch every day regardless of family income. Please do not make payments for these meals through School Grid or ParentPay.

For children in Years 3 to 6, free school meals may still be available if your family meets the eligibility criteria set by the Government.

In addition, families who qualify for benefits-related Free School Meals help the school access additional funding, known as Pupil Premium. This funding is used to provide extra support, resources and opportunities for eligible pupils.

We encourage all families who think they may be eligible to apply, as this can benefit both your child and the school.
