School Lunches
Every child in Scotland from Primary 1 to 5 is entitled to a free school meal. We encourage pupils to try our school dinners. Not only does it encourage them to try new things it also develops their skills in being able to use a knife and fork, make decisions and ask for what they would like.
We are a ‘Healthy Choices’ school and the 4 week rolling menu reflects this, offering a range of nutritious main meals, homemade soup, fresh fruit and salads on a daily basis.
There is a hot option and cold option for the children to choose from everyday. These are recorded by the teacher when taking the register in the morning. Instead of a hot meal, children may choose a picking plate these include: sandwiches, paninis, wraps, fresh fruit, yoghurt etc

Each session we invite parents of our new P1 pupils to join us for lunch. The response and comments received show that parents are most impressed with the quality and choice.
Parents of children who need a special diet should contact the Head Teacher.
Pupils may also bring a packed lunch.
We ask parents to support us in encouraging pupils to eat a healthy diet and ask that you do not give your children fizzy drinks and sugary snacks to bring to school.
Our catering staff also provide a healthy tuck shop at morning interval.
Our Early Riser's Club
Our FREE Early Risers Club is held in the school dining hall and is available to all pupils.
The club starts at 8.00 a.m. Children can eat their breakfast and participate in fun arts/crafts and sporting activities- all included as part of our free Early Riser's Club.
Please note that this Club is there to be used as and when required and not necessarily on a daily basis. The children are supervised by our Learning Assistants.
