Cooked meals are provided by Hampshire Caterers Services (HC3S) on site and follow the Healthy Meals initiative. Parents who may be entitled to free school meals are asked to contact the school office, even if they do not want to accept the meals at the present.
Parents are asked to pay weekly or termly and if paying by cheque please make it payable to Hampshire County Council.
Children may bring a packed lunch from home. We ask that drinks (not fizzy) are brought in non-breakable containers.
Children are encouraged to bring fruit or other healthy snacks to eat at break times. As part of our Healthy Eating programme we do not allow crisps and sweets to be eaten at break times, but of course they may be included as part of a balanced packed lunch. Healthy snacks for the morning break can be bought from the school kitchen.
We feel it is important that children drink water during the day to keep energy levels up. To this end we encourage them to bring a plastic water bottle(named) with sports cap to keep in the classroom. They can then take drinks during breaks and lessons and avoid dehydration.
