As a school, we provide a number of healthy food choices and delicious options for children to choose from.  All our food is freshly cooked and prepared by our on-site kitchen staff.

Parents can pre-order their child’s school meal choices via Arbor—either daily, weekly or half termly. This feature makes planning easier and ensures your child receives the meal they prefer.

Important Times to Remember:

• Daily cut-off for meal selection: 7:45 AM.  After this time, you can still view your child’s meal choice, but you won’t be able to make any changes.

Need to make a change:

• If you wish to amend your child’s meal choice after the 7:45 AM cut off, please contact the school office by 9:00 AM.
• Alternatively, your child can inform their teacher during morning registration.
• If your child is late for morning registration, and they are marked absent for any reason, this will automatically cancel their pre-order choice, so on late arrival at school, please let the office know your child's choice.

Helpful Tip: If you’ve pre-ordered a meal, please remind your child of their selection each morning to avoid any confusion.

To select meal choices for your child, log onto your child’s profile in Arbor, choose Meals from the Quick Actions menu. On the Meal Choices page, pick the relevant Term, select the week you want to choose for, make your selections, then click Process to confirm.

For more detailed instructions on how to make Meal Choices on Arbor on either the Parent Portal or the Parent App please click here.

At morning registration, the children will be told what the menu options are for that day.  There will typically be a meat option, a vegetarian/fish choice, as well as vegetable fajitas, southern fried chicken wrap, choice of sandwiches or a jacket potato and, on Friday, an extra special treat of macaroni cheese or burger, and not forgetting Pizza's on Wednesday’s – so lots of yummy choices.

If your child has a food intolerance or dietary requirement that we are unaware of, please inform the school office.

A school meal costs just £2.75 per day and can be paid through our online payment system – Arbor - Parent Portal

The Government have continued to support the Universal Infant Free School meals project and this means that all children from Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will be provided with a school meal free of charge. 

If your child is in Years 3–6, they can also have a free school meal if you are in receipt of certain allowances. For further information and to apply for Free School Meals(FSM)/Pupil Premium please visit Pupil Premium | Cambridgeshire County Council

Playtime Snacks/Drinks

As we are a healthy Academy, children who want a snack to eat at playtime can bring fresh fruit or vegetables, no other snacks are permitted.  

The reasoning for this, is that these snacks are mainly eaten outside at break in an uncontrolled environment, and we have an increasing range of serious allergies across the school.  We thank you for your help with this, as keeping our children safe is of the highest priority.

Fresh fruit is now being offered free to Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 children through the government-funded scheme.

Cheese, crisps are not allowed at playtime but can be brought in as part of a packed lunch to eat at lunchtime in the school hall.

Chocolate bars should not be brought (even as part of a packed lunch), as they do not fit with our healthy eating programme.

We are a NUT FREE school, so please do not send your child in with an item of food that contains nuts.

Water

All children need to bring to school a refillable bottle of water, with their name clearly on it, to drink in the classroom. Please note that only water can be drunk in the classrooms as fruit juices can be very sticky if spilt.
