School Dinners

If you are not eligible for free school meals, the cost for dinners for 2024/2025 school year is £17.85 per week (£3.57 per day). This can be paid in at the school office by your child, with cash or cheque and if you would prefer to pay for a full term in advance, please contact the school office by telephone to discuss your options. You can also make payment via bank transfer, please contact the school office for further information. Any dinners which are missed, (for example if your child is off sick) will be carried forward.

If you are unsure about your eligibility for free school meals, please visit the website below for further information.

School Opening Times

Primary school pupils will arrive at 8:45am by taxi and will be greeted by staff at the front of the school.  They will then be walked to their classrooms, where they can choose to have some toast, cereal, bagels, porridge, or fruit and prepare for learning.  At the end of the day (2:15pm) the pupils will be walked up to the entrance of the school to meet their taxis.

 

 

When your child arrives at the high school, they should enter by the dining hall entrance where they will be met by staff from 8:15am (dependent upon taxi arrival time).  There are various classrooms open and staff on duty where your child can get a hot drink and toast, cereal, bagels, porridge, cereal or fruit.  Lessons start at 9:00am.  Your child will be supervised during any unstructured times (break/dinner) and will be escorted to the dining hall at the end of the day (2:35pm) by staff.
