School Lunches

121A8005
St Martin's Garden Primary School

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.

From September 2014 every child in Reception and Key Stage 1 is entitled to a free hot school meal. The Government is funding a hot meal for all these pupils under the Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM).    

Free School Meals Eligible by Benefits (EBB) are available for all pupils

If you think you are entitled to Free School Meals because of Benefit entitlement; please ask the school office for an application form or contact Free School Meals at Bath and North East Somerset Council on 01225 394317, email freeschoolmeals@bathnes.gov.uk or use the new Free School Meals Eligibility Checking service on the B&NES website with a link to an online benefit related free school meal application form which can be found using the following link: https://beta.bathnes.gov.uk/apply-free-school-meals

Please apply even if your child has sandwiches as this will help the school receive additional funding through the Government's Pupil Premium scheme.
