SCHOOL MEALS

At 11.45 a.m. midday meals begin to be served in our dining hall. In Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 all school meals are free and we encourage children to stay for a hot school dinner. In Key Stage 2 the cost of each meal is £2.30. All meals for the week must be ordered and paid for on Mondays.  If parents wish, several weeks of meals can be paid for in advance.  Cheques should be made payable to Derby City Council.

We try our best to stick to the menu, however issues with our suppliers may mean that we have to replace ingredients at short notice. Meals will be matched to the original menu as much as possible and refunds will not be issued.

Our teaching assistants supervise the children in the playground and dining hall. The School is responsible for its own catering procedures and meal provision.  As a health promoting school we pride ourselves in being able to provide a healthy mid-day meal which includes raw vegetables/salad and fruit.  This encourages children to make healthy choices to prepare them for adult life. The school governors have specified no meat meals will be served in school but a meat substitute is available.
