The midday meal is cooked on the premises in our own kitchen and it forms an integral part of the school day. It is in fact a good opportunity for social mixing within the school.

Care is taken to ensure that the food is healthy and wholesome. We currently rotate meals on a three weekly basis (paper copies of the menu are available from the school office).

Specialist diets can be catered for on request. Please contact the school office for Special Diet Request Form.

Children in Reception and Years 1 and 2 are entitled to a ‘Universal Infant Free School Meal’. Each individual school dinner will cost £2.65 as from September 2025 and MUST be paid in advance. It can be paid daily, weekly, monthly, half-termly or termly using the secure online facility ParentPay.  For more information on this facility or password resets – please contact the School Office.

Please Note – The menu may be varied slightly, depending on the availability of produce. We will also try to ensure that no meat is served on a Friday.

Children wishing to bring a packed lunch are perfectly free to do so.

Information regarding ParentPay

Parentpay is a secure online system that replaces cash payments for school meals, trips, events and activities in our school.   It can also be used to provide permission for school trips and activities.

Parentpay is easy to use, secure and protects your details.

You can top up your account when you want, so you can budget money for lunches, trips and activities. You can top up online or with cash at your local PayPoint.

Using ParentPay to pay for meals, trips or other school expenses means your child doesn’t have to bring cash with them to school.

Getting started

When your child starts school, you will receive a letter with your activation details and instructions on how to set up your ParentPay account.

If you have more than one child at a school or have children at different schools that use the ParentPay system, you can add them into one single account and have one login for all your children.
