School Meals

At Westborough meals adhere to national standards. As a school we owe it to the children to provide them with a level of nutrition that will promote future health and overall wellbeing.

As a school we also need to respect the right of parents to make decisions about food and diet.

PLEASE REMEMBER WE ARE A NUT FREE SCHOOL -
WE HAVE CHILDREN WHO ATTEND OUR SCHOOL WHO HAVE EXTREME REACTIONS TO NUTS.

As part of our ongoing commitment to providing the children with a choice of healthy, balanced school meals, Julie has updated the menu for the spring/summer term.

We are now on a 4-week rotation.

Week 4 features a "chef's choice" every Thursday, when the children can try a new dish, which will hopefully introduce them to new delicious and nutritious foods and flavours.

The chef's choice will be sent to parents/carers on the Friday of the week before.

As you know, our meals are prepared on site by our lovely kitchen team of Julie, Lee and Natasha.

Wherever possible, we cater for all dietary requirements be they medical, religious or cultural.

Staff sit with our younger children to reinforce good table manners and encourage friendly conversation.

We hope your child will enjoy the yummy new menu!

What do school meals cost?

All Key Stage 1 children are now entitled to a free school meal.

The price of a school dinner for Key Stage 2 children is £2.30. You may be entitled to free school meals for your KS2 child or children. Scroll down for further important information.

If you pay for school meals, please pay through the Gateway app, as we are unable to take cash.

Did you know that you could save over £440 a year if your child ate a FREE and healthy school meal every day? Just imagine what a difference that money could make.
