School meals

Education Catering

We encourage all children to have a healthy snack at breaktime. Children can bring in their own but should not be bringing sweets, crisps or chocolate bars into school.

Children can either bring in a balanced packed lunch or order a school dinner. These are freshly cooked daily on site by Education Catering.

The menu is changed after Easter and October half-term every year and is nut-free.

Please make these as balanced and as healthy as possible. There are several children with severe nut allergies, so please avoid foods containing nuts. Please remind your child(ren) not to share food.

Healthy Snacks

Please provide your child with a piece of fruit or a healthy alternative. Children should not bring sweets to school at all. All children have access to drinking fountains during learning breaks.

We are encouraging all children to have a healthy snack at break time. If you are providing a healthy snack for your child, please could you consider the above guidance from the School Food Trust.
