School Meals

We work in partnership with City Catering Southampton to provide all students the option of a delicious, nutritionally balanced hot meal at lunchtime.

If your child has any specific dietary requirements or food allergies, please contact the school office and we will endeavour to devise a menu specifically for your child's needs.

For further information regarding our menus, please download the LUNCHERO app from the app or play store. This app helps parents and students access the daily lunch menu, giving a visual display of every meal on offer. Parents can also use the app to recreate favourite meals at home, thanks to the in-app recipes.

Universal Infant Free School Meals

Since September 2014, all pupils in Reception, Year 1 and 2 are automatically entitled to a free school meal under the Government's Universal Infant School Meals (UIFSM) policy.

Cost for Pupils in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6

Currently, the cost of a lunch is £2.50 per child. As we are now a cashless office, this should be paid onto your child's online account (via Scopay) in advance. If you have not yet set up an online account, please contact the School Office who will provide you with the details you will need for each child.
