School Meals

All meals are cooked fresh each day, using the best ingredients and freshest produce.  Portion sizes will be appropriate to each child’s age/size.  Our menus run on a four week rota.  We will from time to time have ‘Special Days’ – we will let you know about these via the weekly newsletter. 

Our menus are reviewed regularly and hopefully with feedback from the children, we can establish healthy, tasty meal options that the children will enjoy eating.  Please encourage your child to let us know if there is something they have loved or something they disliked.  All our menu's are in line with National Food standards for schools. 

 Healthy Packed Lunch - from home

 Please ensure packed lunches are healthy.
If your child stays at school for a school meal or a packed lunch then she/he will dine in the school hall with other children from their class. 

 Refreshments/Snacks

Milk and fruit is available to our youngest children (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2) free of charge. We encourage all children to bring fruit to school for a snack during the day.
