Meal Menus
Our delicious meals are freshly made on site each day by our dedicated kitchen staff. The food is sourced locally wherever possible and our meat is purchased from Burton & Son Butchers, Broad Oak Farm Sausage Company or Great Garnetts.
Universal free school meals are provided in the infant years. For the junior aged children, meals are tremendous value at a cost of £2.70 a day and are paid for, in advance, through SchoolMoney.
If your child has an allergy or intolerance to any food, please contact the school office.
Our team are extremely talented and consistently deliver delicious meals. They demonstrate a passion for food and commitment to cooking from scratch, using locally sourced meats and vegetables and rejecting processed foods. Even our staff (who had never eaten school dinners when they were at school) enjoy them every day!
The team's culinary expertise is reflected in the mouth-watering dishes they create. From classic favourites like roasts and lasagne to international cuisine such as chicken curry and stir-fry, their menu is diverse and flavourful. The team are always keen to get the children to try new food. When we welcomed some Ukrainian refugees to our school, our cook created a Ukrainian dessert to raise funds for the Red Cross and the children were delighted to try the new dish.
It's not just the quality of their food that deserves recognition. Our school dinners were so popular that our parents begged our cook to send them her recipes, which she now presents on a popular Instagram account -

Parents petitioned again and now parents get to come and book a school lunch. This has proved extremely popular and now our dining halls are filled with not only happy children, but parents too at lunchtime!
