School Meals
Our school lunches are lovely!
Our school meals are provided by Mellors Catering and prepared in school. There is lots of information about the service Mellors provide on their website. Click the logo to visit their site:
Did you know that All pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a school meal free of charge? However, it is still important that we know whether your child would fit the criteria to receive free meals via Educational Benefits. |
Hot school lunches are available to all pupils should they wish to take them. Parents who are in receipt of some benefits are entitled to free school meals for their children. Pupils are not aware who has paid and who has free meals. Please contact Mrs Richardson if you think that you may be entitled to receive free meals or contact the Local Authority (01642 774774).
Children changing between School Meals and Packed Lunch or Vice Versa will need to arrange this with Mrs Richardson in advance. A school meal costs £2.40 per day – £12.00 per week.
Pupils may also bring a packed lunch in a suitable labelled container.
We ask that parents bear in mind that children should have a balanced diet and not a packed lunch consisting of crisps, sweets and chocolate. Fizzy drinks are not allowed. Water and beakers are available for packed lunch children as well as those having a cooked meal. Please do not send food containing nuts into school for allergy reasons.
Parents are encouraged to try a school lunch with their children prior to entering full-time education.
We kindly ask that birthday cakes are not sent into school to help prevent any allergy risks. If sweets are sent into school for children to share then these must be individually labelled so they can be given out at the end of the day, allowing parents and carers to take responsibility for if and when they are consumed.
