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 Reception and KS1 are now entitled to a Universal Free School Meal. KS2 school meals must be paid for in advance, online, through the "My Child At School " (MCAS) parent portal. The current cost is £2.50 per day per child (£12.50 per week). Payment can be weekly, half termly or termly. Parents' attention is drawn to the fact that refrigerated storage is not available for packed lunches.
