Our School Menus
Currently, all children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a free school meal under the Governments Universal Infant Free School Meals initiative. We work closely with Sunderland City Council School Meals Service to ensure that all children have access to a menu that, not only meets the national school food standards and the criteria for Food for Life, but that is also appropriate for and appealing to our young children. Menus will be sent home prior to your child starting school / nursery, so that you and your child can choose their meals. We do not allow children in Reception / Year 1 / Year 2 to bring a packed lunch.
Nursey children have the option to bring a healthy packed lunch, in line with our ‘Packed Lunch Policy’, which will be provided prior to your child starting our nursery. Nursery children also have the option to buy a school meal for £2.50.
Any dietary requirements will be discussed prior to your child starting school. If necessary, a ‘Provision of an Allergy or Intolerance Diet’ authorisation form will need to be completed and medical evidence submitted, to allow the Catering Manager to prepare an appropriate meal for your child.
