School Meals

There is a hot main meal and vegetarian option available each day. Menus are on a three weekly cycle and are available on the website, as well on the noticeboard next to the dining room. There is also a salad bar available to students. School lunches cost £2.40 per day. Payments can be made for any value at any time, however we do ask that your daughter’s lunch account remains in credit. There is an email/text alert facility within ParentPay that will allow you to set a reminder when the dinner money balance is low. If your daughter decides to change to packed lunches we request that this is only done at the beginning of a term and we require a minimum of 1 weeks’ notice in writing please, to Mrs Claramunt.

School Food Standards

Packed lunches

Only a small proportion of students have a packed lunch which says much about the food on offer. There is a no fizzy drinks policy in school.
