School Meals
Students can choose between bringing their own packed lunches or using the facilities of our modern Dining Hall. With the cashless card system, students can keep accounts ‘topped-up’ using our on-line payment system, Arbor or by using cash at one of our machines in school. Accounts are accessed using a biometric system.
Menus are changed weekly with a new series of menus on a three-weekly cycle and a daily vegetarian and halal options are also available. Our catering team will provide for a range of different dietary requirements including gluten-free and halal.
The full ‘Meal-Deal’ costs £3.36 each day.
Should parents and carers wish to know what their child has bought recently, Catering Manager, Mrs Jane Davies, is happy to supply a detailed list or alternatively, this can be viewed using our on-line payment system under the ‘School dinners’ option.
