  2. School Meals

School Meals

Our excellent school lunches are provided by Twelve15, a department of Surrey County Council. We are very lucky to have the school lunches prepared on site.  We achieved the Healthy Schools Silver Award in October 2017 and Gold Award in February 2019, having already achieved Enhanced and Bronze Awards, and maintain a high standard in promoting foods that contribute towards a 'healthy' lunch.  For children who bring in a packed lunch, we encourage a filled sandwich or roll, a selection of raw vegetables/salad, a selection of fresh dried fruit and yoghurt, and water.

We are a nut-free zone - no nut products are allowed in the school.

Universal Free School Meals

Free Schools Meals (FSM) are provided in state-funded schools for Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. Lisa, our cook, provides a nutritious lunch free of charge, which is a hot meal including vegetables, salad and pudding, or your child may bring in a packed lunch.

Your child’s lunch choice must be for a whole week (ie. hot lunches or packed lunch all week), and any changes must be requested a week in advance.

Although meals will be provided free, it may still be beneficial to you (if you meet the criteria) to apply for the FSM entitlement.  For every child in receipt of this entitlement, the school receives an extra £1480 in funding, and this money is used to support that child with access to free school trips, Forest Schools, swimming sessions, after-school clubs, theatre visits and other learning opportunities.

To qualify for FSM Entitlement parents/guardians must be in receipt of either:

  • Income Support
  • Income Based Job Seeker’s Allowance (IBJSA)
  • Support under part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • Child Tax Credit, provided that their annual income is less than £16,190 (as assessed by HMRC) and they are not in receipt of Working Tax Credit.
  • The guaranteed element of State Pension Credit.
  • Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
  • Universal Credit

The application process is quick and is kept strictly confidential. Please speak to the office if you require further information.
