School Meals

Our school meals are provided by Lancashire County Council and freshly prepared on the school premises each day.

We operate a three-week rotating menu, offering children a choice of healthy, balanced, and nutritious meals every day. Please see the current menu for details of the options available.

Meals are charged at £2.95 per day (£14.75 per week) for children in Years 3–6 who are not eligible for Free School Meals. Payments should be made in advance via ParentPay. Children should not bring cash into school to pay for meals.

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a Universal Infant Free School Meal.

From September 2026, Lancashire County Council is introducing changes to Free School Meal eligibility. The earnings threshold is being removed, meaning all families receiving Universal Credit will qualify for Free School Meals.

Please note that all families wishing to receive Free School Meals from September 2026 must submit a new application, even if their child currently receives free school meals.

If you think your child may be eligible, or would like further information, please contact the school office.

School Meal Arrears

If your ParentPay account falls into arrears, the school office will contact you by text message or letter to request payment.

Where arrears reach two weeks or more, we will no longer be able to provide a school meal for your child. In these circumstances, parents/carers will be asked to provide a healthy packed lunch until the outstanding balance has been cleared.

Any school meal debt that remains unpaid, despite the school's efforts to recover the money, will be referred to the Lancashire County Council Debt Recovery Team.

If you experience any difficulties in paying for your child's school meals, please contact the school office as soon as possible. We are here to help and may be able to offer advice and support.
