Lunch is an important part of the school day and that is why we ensure pupils are provided with a healthy, delicious and nutritious lunch.
All of our lunches are cooked onsite by our Chef, who uses a range of local suppliers for our meat and our fruit and vegetables.
We believe that lunchtime is about much more than simply eating; children all sit and eat together and are encouraged to enjoy the time together as an important part of their school day.
Our kitchen has a 5-star food hygiene rating and our lunch menu offers a diverse range of dishes for pupils to enjoy.
