School Meals
We work with Chartwells for your children’s school dinners. Chartwells believe that the key to fuelling young minds comes from understanding both what they need and what they enjoy, which is why they develop nutritious and delicious food that pupils love, alongside helping to ensure a healthy body and mind. Their passionate culinary experts work closely with us to ensure every child receives healthy food, perfectly suited to meet their needs and dietary requirements.

Packed Lunches
If preferred, children can bring a packed lunch to school. This is eaten in the dining hall at the same time as the meals are served. Packed lunches should be brought in a named lunch box. If children bring a packed lunch drinking water is freely available on the table.
Milk
The school is part of the Cool Milk for Schools scheme, where milk is provided if required, to children in all classes. Children under 5 years are entitled to a carton of milk free, which is delivered fresh to school each day and stored in the refrigerator until morning break time. Once a child is 5 years old the milk can be bought at a cost approx £18 a term. This is ordered direct from Cool Milk for School. The school handles none of the money or the ordering arrangements for the milk.
To register your child for milk or to simply pay your Cool Milk account please visit the Cool Milk website.
Snacks
Sweets and chewing gum are not allowed in school. If children require a snack at break times, then healthy options such as easily peeled fruit are encouraged. Our school takes part in the Free Fruit Scheme. Each infant child is offered a piece of fresh fruit every day.
Breakfast Club
Breakfast Club operates each day from 08.00am to 08.45am. As from September 2022 the cost per session is £3.00. You can find out further information about our Breakfast Club on our website.
