All packed lunches should be in a suitable container. We do not allow glass bottles or cans – only cartons or plastic containers.

Why are Free School Meals important?

The benefits of children getting a free and nutritionally balanced meal are well documented, but children who qualify for Free School Meals may also get help with the following:

Help with the cost residential school trips.
Help with travel costs to school.
Help with school uniform costs (through your child’s school).
Help with council run music lessons at school.
Extra funding to support them at school. This funding is known as the Pupil Premium. Primary schools will receive £1300 this year for every child registered for free school meals.
