Lunches work on a 3 week repeating pattern:

There is a sign in the kitchen window to let you know the current week.

SCHOOL MEALS

From September 2022 we have a new contractor, Chartwell's.  They have worked with the local authority to provide a balanced menu over a week, following Government guidelines.  There is always fruit available, and custard with some desserts forms part of the dairy element of a diet.

Our SNAG group (Student Nutrition Action Group) have been involved in producing an updated school food policy which the governing body have accepted. 

PACKED LUNCHES

The group also reviewed packed lunches which resulted in guidelines based on sensible personal choices not regulation. Families are requested to live within the spirit of the policy helping to keep all of our children safe (those with allergies) and healthy. 

Please can you make sure that you provide your child with a balanced packed lunch with appropriate levels of protein, carbohydrate and fat. We respectfully ask that you do not include:

• Nuts or any product containing nuts 
• Fizzy/sugary drinks 
• Chocolate bars/sweets/confectionery  
• Fruit bars/ Cereal bars (with hidden nuts & sugar) 
• Chocolate spread sandwich filling 
• Chewing gum

Try to achieve a healthy balance e.g. one chocolate biscuit or a small cake is OK, but a bar of chocolate, bag of Haribos or a lollipop is not. One small packet of crisps is fine but have some fresh fruit and veg as well. Make your own sensible decisions for good health!
