School Lunches

Children have the choice between bringing a packed lunch or purchasing a school meal freshly prepared each day by our school catering provider, ABM Catering Ltd.

Meals are ordered by parents online through ParentPay. Meals must be ordered by 9am of the day they are required.

Universal Infant Free School Meals

Universal Infant Free School Meals are offered to all children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. This Government led initiative has been developed with the purpose of aiding child development, supporting academic performance and improving levels of healthy eating. These meals will not be compulsory and if you prefer your child can still bring in a packed lunch. The provision for older children in Years 3 to 6 will not be affected. All Reception and Key Stage 1 children are automatically enrolled on to the online ordering system with this free entitlement.
