Should your child have any dietary requirements, please make an appointment to speak to the kitchen manager. 

School Dinners

Lunchtime is an important part of our day and we make a special effort to make it a positive, enjoyable time for the children.

We have a kitchen on site and meals are cooked daily. Children can opt for a school dinner and have a choice of a main meal, vegetarian, jacket potato or a school packed lunch. 

We promote ‘healthy eating’ and our menus reflect this.

The meals are of an excellent quality. Menus are available from the School Office as well as on our website.

Children may also bring a packed lunch from home if they wish.

School Dinner Prices

Universal Infant Free School Meals are for children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2.

The Government provide fruit/vegetables for all children in Nursery/Reception/Years 1 & 2, which is eaten during morning break.  Parents may wish to provide their children with a healthy snack (fruit or cheese) to each during the afternoon break.

Years 3, 4, 5 & 6 - children can bring in a healthy snack for breaktime (fruit or cheese).

Benefit related free school meals

All children in reception, year 1 and year 2 at state schools in England automatically get free school meals.

However, parents and guardians are encouraged to apply for free school meals when they enrol their child in school, as this can help their child’s school to attract additional ‘pupil premium‘ funding to support learning, trips and events.

From year 3 onwards, children whose parents are getting any of the following are entitled to free school meals:

• Universal Credit (provided you have an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400, as assessed by earnings from up to three of your most recent assessment periods).
• Income Support (IS).
• Income-based Jobseekers Allowance (IBJSA).
• Income-related Employment and Support Allowance (IRESA).
• The guaranteed element of State Pension Credit.
• Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999.
• Child Tax Credit (provided you’re not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income as assessed by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs, that does not exceed £16,190).
• Working Tax Credit run-on  (the payment you get for a further 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit).
