Pupils may bring a packed lunch or have a hot school meal. The children will be able to sit next to their friends regardless of which type of lunch they have.
Packed lunches
We encourage children to eat healthily and not to have chocolate coated biscuit bars or crisps regularly in their lunch box. Sweets and bars of chocolate are not allowed. We are a ‘No Nut’ school and so Peanut butter, Nutella and cereal bars containing nuts are not permitted. Please be aware that food must be in suitable containers and no fizzy drinks or glass bottles are allowed.
Hot School Meals
The hot school meals menu meets all Government nutritional standards and is provided by Alliance in Partnership (AIP), a successful hot meal provider, who work with hundreds of schools around the country. Our meals are cooked in Aylesbury, brought in each day in heated trolleys and kept in a heated cupboard at school before being served. Food is prepared daily and has the same texture and taste as homemade cooking.
