School meals are cooked fresh every day by our lovely cooks, Mrs Fiona Blackmore and Mrs Beccy Haswell. Children can choose from a hot meal, jacket potato, panini or sandwich option. Children are able to select their choice each morning as the register is taken. There is a menu produced at the start of each term which operates on a three weekly cycle.

Packed Lunches
In order to flourish, we need a healthy body and mind. To help us achieve this we have chosen to work towards achieving North Yorkshire’s Healthy Schools Award focusing on food as it plays such a big part in our health. We know that our school meal menus are carefully constructed by experts in food nutrition and so are beginning our journey by evaluating packed lunches. We would like to achieve:
- For every lunch to have two pieces of fruit or vegetables, which includes at least one savoury.
- Every lunch to contain a portion of protein.
- That no lunches contain sugary or fatty foods.
We ask that children do not have nuts in their packed lunches as we have children in school with nut allergies. Please comply with this request so we can keep our children safe. We hold Healthy Schools status and encourage children to make healthy food choices. Can we please request that grapes/olives etc are cut in half lengthways to minimize a choking risk.
