Meals

All pupils from Reception to Year 6 can choose to have either a school lunch or bring a packed lunch from home.

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a free school meal as part of the Universal Infant Free School Meal Scheme.

 

By committing to a regular school meal you can be sure your child is eating well at lunchtime.  It is just as important to make sure that the lunchbox that children bring to school provides a healthy and balanced lunch.  This means plenty of foods that contain the nutrients that children need, and fewer foods that are high in sugar and saturated fat.
