We ask that you make use of the online payment system as we operate a cashless system at present in line with NLC policy. We thank you for your cooperation with this.

You may be entitled to apply for free school meals if your child attends a North Lanarkshire school.

All Primary 1 to 5 children are automatically entitled to receive a free school meal.

The breakfast club is open to all pupils each day from 8.15am until 8.45am. The breakfast consists of fruit juice, toast and cereal. This is free to all P1-5 pupils and for P6-7 pupils in receipt of free school meals. For all other pupils the cost is £1 per day with a sliding scale for families of 2 at £1.50 and families of 3 at £1.80 per day.

New Primary Menu

We are pleased to say that as of Wednesday the 12th of August 2020 we will still be able to offer a hot meal option in Primary schools. Please see our menu here which will run for at least six weeks. Any changes to the menu thereafter, will be communicated in advance.

Cost of a School Meal

The price of a primary school two-course lunch is now £3.10. All meals are served with milk or chilled water and two portions of vegetables and a portion of fruit daily. Pupils can also choose either soup, yoghurt, or home baking as indicated on the menu to accompany their meal.

A free school meal entitlement is up to the value of the school meal price of £3.10. This includes all pupils from P1-P5.

Pre -Order Service

The school will take a pre-order for pupils daily.  Pupils can select their meal early in the morning and secure their meal of choice, this will then be rung through a till earlier in the day, to deduct the money from the pupils account.   This will also allow you to see the balance and meal choice.

You can sign up to have the weekly menu sent direct to your inbox using the link at the top of the NLC webpage –
