Dinners are cooked and delivered from Yarlside Academy. The menu is on a three week rota, which can be found on the parent pay app. We also offer specialist/theme days where the children get the opportunity to sample new and exciting foods.
The menu operates with one main meal offered each day. If children do not like the main choices they can always have an alternative choice of jacket potato with a choice of filling. We also have a deli bar which offers a variety of extra breads, salads and grains for the children to choose. A vegetarian option is also available daily.
Currently, all children in Reception to Year 2 are entitled to Universal Free School Meals, we highly recommend that you take advantage of this initiative. We often find that children who have a hot dinner will try many new foods that they wouldn’t otherwise do at home. We also provide both Vegan and Vegetarian options, please contact the school office for more information.
Please ensure to still order online via ParentPay.
The cost of one meal is £2.80, and the cost for the week is £14.00
All school dinners are ordered and paid for online using ParentPay.
Special diets can be catered for at our school. Please contact us if you have any queries or concerns about food allergies.
If your child is having a packed lunch we encourage healthy options, no fizzy drinks/sweets/chocolate bars.
