All children in Foundation Stage, Y1 and Y2 are entitled to have a free hot meal under the Universal Free School Meals scheme. This is a huge saving to parents/carers and also helps children to try new foods and often try foods with their peers that they won’t eat at home.
We encourage all children in Koala, Toucan, Meerkat and Zebra classes to have hot meals each day. It is also easier for the children as they don’t need help in unwrapping food from packets in their packed lunches. It also saves confusion when children have similar looking lunchboxes.
We are very lucky to have food cooked on site in our school.
