Lunch, Snacks & Drinks

No nut policy

Some of our pupils are highly allergic to nuts and therefore nuts and nut products are not allowed in school. Please be aware that NUTELLA contains nuts, as well as many cereal bars and chocolates (like Kinder). If a product says “may contain nuts”, it is fine. If it says “may contain peanuts (or another specific type of nut)”, please do not bring it in. “Pine nuts” are not actual nuts, but seeds, and are fine.

Water

Please give your child a named bottle of water to drink during the day. Drinking fountains are also available in school, but are closed when it freezes, so the children will need their own water bottles.

Snacks

For the Reception year, Year 1 and Year 2 a piece of fruit (or carrots/tomatoes) is provided for a morning snack. We ask that older children bring in their own healthy snack, if required. Please provide an extra nibble for children who leave home early. 

Milk is offered free until the child is 5 and that age parents/carers can subscribe for their child to continue receiving milk.

Canteen

School dinners are available to all pupils.

Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will be provided with a free school meal partly subsidised by the Government (Universal Free School meals). Please inform the school office in case you do NOT wish your child to have school dinners, or of any known allergies. The cost of Primary meals is £2.79 per meal from 1st September 2022, the school is funded for £2.34 per meal for Reception, Year 1 and Year 2.
