School Meals:

Aspens are our new catering provider from September 2026. Please see the below for our exciting new menus.

(Please click the link below for the current menu)

Children may choose to have school lunches or to bring lunch from home and we also offer ‘flexi-dining’ where children can do a mix of both.  As well as the main choice, a vegetarian option, jacket potatoes, pasta and sandwiches are also available. 

If your child brings a packed lunch from home we must insist that no nuts/nut products are included, as we have children in school with allergies. The class teacher will ask children at morning registration whether they will be having a school lunch each day and to choose what lunch they would like.

School meals for children are priced at £3.25 per day / £16.25 per week.  You can also pay termly if you wish.  Where possible we ask that payment is made through our secure online ParentPay system (unique log in details will be provided to parents).  Alternatively, you may pay by cash.  Please ensure any monies are sent in an envelope marked clearly with your child’s name, class, amount enclosed and what it is for.

In line with our dinner money policy, we do ask that parents keep their pupil account up to date so please check your account regularly to ensure you are in credit.

Alternative Diets (Including allergies, intolerances, or lifestyle choice):

Aspens can cater for any special dietary requirements can be catered for (but a form will need to be completed). Please see below for Aspens alternative menu form if this is required.

Snacks:

Children can bring a healthy snack from home to eat at breaktime, such as fruit, cereal bar etc. Please ensure all snacks are nut free due to allergies in school which can be potentially life threatening for some of our pupils.  We do not allow sweets and chocolate in school.
