For lunch, the kitchen provides a choice of snack and main meals, and either a starter or dessert. We have a varied and tasty menu available which is detailed here.
Please review the menu with your child so they know what to order.
On any occasion where the menu needs to change for any reason, we will communicate this with families as soon as possible either by text or email.
We operate a pre order system for school dinners where the children order their lunch in the morning. The report from this will then be printed by our Catering Staff to ensure your child gets the meal they ordered.
Free School Meals
All children in Primary 1-5 are entitled to a free school meal.

Free School Meals and Clothing Grant
Only those children who receive a free school meal are entitled to free milk. Milk may however be available for purchase in the school during the lunch period.
Paying for School Meals
Payment for School Meals can be made through iPayImpact, our online payment portal. No child will ever not be able to get a meal due to shortage or lack of appropriate payment. A child who has not paid will be issued with a slip to let you know so that you can add this to your child’s account. Throughout the session, we will let you know if your account is in debt.
