About our School Lunches
Our school meals are provided by a catering company called Mellors Catering. Please take a look at Mellors Catering to find out more about the company.
There is usually a three weekly lunch menu each term which follows the Food Plan guidance.
As we are a 'cashless' school, lunches are paid through an electronic system called ParentPay. Parents are issued with login details to access the website. Once on ParentPay, services can be paid for, such as school lunches, view the school lunch menu and even see what your child has eaten for their lunch. The price of a child's school meal is £2.80 (from September 2024).
Free School Meals
All Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 pupils receive free Universal Infant Free School Meal (UIFSM), which is provided via a government grant. Please note, this is different to claiming Free School Meals (FSM) due to your financial circumstances. Even if your child is on the Sherborne Site we urge you to apply for Free School Meals screening, as the school receives additional funding for every eligible child, even if they already get UIFSM. This funding can be used to part subsidise school trips.
To check if you are eligible to receive Free School Meals please complete the online form or contact the office if you need assistance. Even if you are not eligible now, the free checking service will update regularly and inform the school if you become eligible.
Snacks
We encourage healthy eating. EYFS and KS1 children are provided with fruit and KS2 children may bring in healthy snacks, but strictly no nut based products, including nutella dip pots and anything that says "May contain nuts". This is for the safety of all of our pupils, as we do have children in school with serious allergies to Nuts.
