School Meals

Freshly Prepared Meals from Our On-Site Kitchen

We are proud to have our own dedicated, on-site kitchen team who prepare delicious, freshly cooked meals for our pupils every day. Having a kitchen within school means our staff can focus on quality, variety and nutrition, ensuring that every meal is both enjoyable and balanced.

Our experienced kitchen team takes great care in planning menus that appeal to children while also supporting healthy eating habits. Meals are prepared using fresh ingredients wherever possible, with a range of options available each day, including vegetarian choices. We also cater to a variety of dietary requirements and allergies, working closely with families to ensure every child can be safely and confidently included.

The daily menu is designed to be both nutritious and exciting, helping children to try new foods and develop positive attitudes towards mealtimes. Our team take real pride in what they do, and it shows in the quality and presentation of the food served.

For children who are not eligible for free school meals, lunches are currently priced at £2.60 per day, offering excellent value for a freshly prepared, hot meal.

All meals should be ordered in advance via Arbor, allowing children to select their preferred option and helping our kitchen team prepare the right number of meals each day.

How to order: Please order via Arbor Arbor under the meal section. Menus are on a 3-week basis and are rotated termly.  Each menu includes a meat/fish option, a vegetarian option, a jacket potato, a deli bar option, and a piece of fruit.  > Instructions on how to order through Arbor 

Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM)

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a free school meal under the Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM) scheme. These meals are provided at no cost to families and offer a healthy, balanced option each day.

We ask parents and carers to order meals in advance using Arbor so that children can choose what they would like and our kitchen team can prepare accordingly.

Even though meals are free, ordering in advance is essential to ensure availability and reduce food waste.

Free School Meals (FSM) and Lunch Ordering

If your child is eligible for Free School Meals (FSM), they are entitled to a nutritious school lunch each day at no cost. We ask all parents and carers of FSM pupils to continue to order meals in advance using Arbor, just as you would for a paid meal.

Ordering in advance helps our kitchen team prepare the right number of meals and ensures your child receives their preferred choice each day.

If you have not yet registered for FSM but think your child may be eligible, please contact the school office for support with your application.
