Children are supervised whilst eating their packed lunch or hot meal in addition to when they are playing outside.
Reception and Years 1 and 2 children are entitled to Universal Free School meals. In addition, hot meals are provided to children on benefit-related free school meals. Meals must be ordered via ParentPay.
Hot meals are also available for KS2 children at a cost of £2.58 per meal and are bookable per half term via ParentPay.
Children can bring in: a small sandwich, crackers/cheese, yogurt, a snack, such as a fresh fruit or vegetable (not wrapped or packet), to eat during breaktime; their packed lunch (if not having a school lunch) and water in a bottle. Fizzy drinks should not be brought into school. If children bring squash/juice for lunchtime, they must also have a water bottle for drinking during the day.
A free piece of fruit is provided each day for the three younger classes.
Our Eco-Warriors have requested that children reduce the soft plastics they bring to school. Please bear this in mind and consider re-usable containers. These should be compact, secure, and named. Glass containers are not allowed.
