School Meals & Menus
School meals are:
- Nutritionally balanced to ensure they are low in fat, sugar and salt and high in vitamins and minerals – healthier than many packed lunches
- Helping your child to concentrate throughout the day – a hot meal at lunch-time provides energy – as well as encouraging them to try new foods
- Produced to a high quality using locally produced ingredients
- Helping your child to learn the social skills that eating and interacting with others brings
- Great value for money – £2.10 for a primary school meal and £2.15 for a secondary meal deal
