School Meals
Lunch Arrangements
Our school meals are of a high nutritious standard and are designed to be enjoyed by all children. Children have a choice of four meals each day; a hot meat/fish dish (Red), a hot vegetarian (Yellow), a chilled choice (Green) or a Jacket Potato with various toppings (Blue). Each is offered with a choice of dessert e.g. fruit, yogurt, a hot pudding etc. and a drink of water. If your child has special dietary requirements, please speak to your child’s class teacher or the office so we are able to meet their needs.
Alternatively, children are allowed to bring their own packed lunch to eat at school. They are also encouraged to bring a suitable drink to enjoy with their packed lunch e.g. fruit juice, water etc. (no glass bottles please). Please provide your own cutlery for yogurts/salads etc. from home.
As part of our Healthy Schools Policy, children have access to fresh drinking water from water coolers. The children will be provided with their own water bottle.
The children are supervised during lunch by a team of Lunchtime Assistants who provide a caring, sociable and enjoyable lunchtime for all.
