School Meals
Our school meals are provided by Dolce. There are four daily options; a main meal, a main vegetarian meal, jacket potatoes with a range of fillings and sandwiches/rolls/wraps with a range of fillings.
Families should order meals in advance using the SchoolGrid app.
If your child has any special dietary requirements it is important that you let us know. You can notify us via your child’s enrolment form, or please speak to a member of the office.
For more information on school menus, ordering lunches or dietary requirements, please contact the school office:

Free School Meals
All pupils in Reception, Y1 and Y2 are entitled to free school meals.
If your child is in Year 3, 4, 5 or 6, you may still be entitled to free school meals and we can check your eligibility for you with a few pieces of information: your national insurance number, date of birth and surname (parent’s surname rather than child’s surname).
If your child is in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2 it is still important and helpful that you complete free school meals eligibility checks, as this information is used to see if your child is eligible for additional pupil premium funding.
Please contact our Welfare Officer, or a member of the office team for more information
Packed lunches
If your child prefers to bring a packed lunch it is important to make it balanced and healthy.
