Lunches 

We believe a healthy, balanced lunch helps children to concentrate, learn, and enjoy their day.

Universal Free School Lunch for Infant School children

The Government provides every child in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2, in state-funded schools with a Free School lunch. Please register your child for a Universal Free School Meal via this link.

If your child brings a packed lunch, please follow our Healthy Eating Policy, in particular:

  • Please do not include sweets, chocolate, crisps, fizzy drinks, or nuts (including products like Nutella).
