The Fish & Chip Lunch is available for all children to buy as a normal school lunch; you may also buy an adult version for £3.00 – BARGAIN! You are welcome to bring younger children; a Fish & Chip Lunch will cost them £2.45. If Fish & Chips isn’t your favourite then why not join in by bringing your own packed lunch!

Vegetarian Quorn dippers (v)

Salad Bar

Chocolate Crunch, cookies or cupcakes 

All for the bargain price of £3.00!

We need to know in advance if you would like to attend and buy lunches. We also require a non-refundable payment along with your Fish & Chip Family lunch request. Do not include children who come to school, as they will need to order and pay in the usual way.

Family Lunch starts from 11.45am (nursery 11.20am) and continues until 1pm when children will go back into class.

Please log on to ParentPay to book and pay for meals. Meals need to be ordered no later than Tuesday 8th November.

It will also be a chance for your children to share the work that they are doing in class and show you around school.

We apologise in advance for any queues that may build up. Our kitchen team try their best to serve up as quickly as they can!
