School Lunches

School Meals are currently prepared and cooked by Aspens.

  

_{Children can, of course, bring their own packed lunches and we actively encourage healthy lunchboxes. Sweets and fizzy drinks are strictly off the menu!  Fruit is provided for a mid-morning snack.  Parents are asked to provide a piece of fruit for an afternoon snack.}

                  

^{We are proud of our large, bright dining hall where the children can enjoy their meal in a pleasant, sociable atmosphere. They are supervised by our friendly team of Lunchtime Supervisors, who encourage the children to eat a good, healthy meal.}
