School Lunches September 2025 - March 2026
In addition to the traditional menu that can be downloaded below, there are the following two options:
Jacket Potato - available daily with cheese, tuna or beans
Pasta - available daily with homemade tomato sauce and cheese (if required)
We encourage all children to have a healthy snack at break-time. Children can bring in their own but should not be bringing sweets, crisps or chocolate bars into school.
Children can either bring in a balanced packed lunch or order a school dinner. These are freshly cooked daily on site by Education Catering.
The menu is changed after Easter and October half-term every year and is nut-free.
For core allergy and lifestyle requirements, a form is available from the school office. Allergen safe menus that cover the 14 legal allergens are available. Parents may need a menu consultation with the catering team.
Medical diet requests: Please request a form from the school office.
Please make these as balanced and as healthy as possible. There are several children with severe nut allergies, so please avoid foods containing nuts. Please remind your child(ren) not to share food.
Healthy Snacks
Please provide your child with a piece of fruit or a healthy alternative. Children should not bring sweets to school at all. All children have access to drinking fountains during learning breaks.
School Dinners
Payments can be made online via your online Arbor account. School dinners will be £3.20 per day from 1st September 2024.
If you wish to pay by cheque, please make it payable to ‘HCC’.
Payments sent to school need to be in a sealed envelope with your child’s full name on the front.
There is no obligation to pay online when you register. However, you will be able to view your child’s balance for dinner money, trips etc. whether you make your payment online or directly in school.
We are encouraging all children to have a healthy snack at break time. If you are providing a healthy snack for your child, please could you consider the above guidance from the School Food Trust.
