Catering

Breakfast

We provide all our pupils with a healthy breakfast to start the day!  There is no cost for this.  Everyday there is cereal, toast, beans, spaghetti, water, orange or apple juice available.  We also have pancakes, waffles, crumpets and bagels available on rotation throughout the week.

For more information please speak to a member of staff in your child's class team.

Snacks!

We like to refuel throughout the day as we know it helps us to concentrate.  After friendship time, we provide a selection of different fruits.  Please let your class staff team know what your favourite fruits are so we can order them in advance!

Hydration!

It is important to keep hydrated as it makes our brains work and that helps us to learn and remember new information. Jugs of chilled, filtered water are available throughout the day for pupils to help themselves to.  Pupils are not allowed ot bring their own water bottles or drinks in.

Lunches

Children are able to concentrate and learn better when they have eaten a healthy, balanced lunch.  In our school we serve four meal choices each day, consisting of: two main courses (one of which is a vegetarian meal) a jacket potato option and a sandwich/wrap/toastie option. Each meal is accompanied by vegetables or salad.  Everyday there is a homemade dessert, fruit or yoghurt available. Jugs of water or milk are available so all pupils can help themselves to a drink.

Meals are freshly made every day, using great quality produce that is locally produced where possible.  The menus have been written by the School Council and are healthy and balanced meals which our pupils enjoy eating.  We cater for all dietary, medical and religious requirements and adapt our menus for our children where possible.

If you pay for lunches you can do so using our online system, School Money. They are charged at £2.75 a day.
