Newhey Community Primary School

Lunchtimes

Your child has a choice of a school meal or bringing in a packed lunch.

School meals are cooked on the premises. The content of the school meals is in line with Healthy Eating Guidelines which is a requirement for all schools.  A copy of our school meals menu is available here.

If you are providing your child with a packed lunch - the Governing Body request that the contents are healthy and form a balanced diet.  Chocolate, sweets and snacks that contain a high level of fats, sugars and salt should be avoided.  The children are taught about healthy lifestyles as part of the curriculum and you can obtain a leaflet giving advice on what a healthy lunchbox could contain. 

School meal money is paid on a Monday morning via School Gateway, the school's online payment system. Further details are available from the school office.

From 1st September 2024 school meals for KS2 pupils will cost £13.75 per week (£2.75 per day), and the price of a nursery child's meal will be £1.90 per day (£9.50 per week).

Pupils in Reception and KS1 classes are now entitled to a Universal Infant Free School Meal.

Our Lunch menus change termly but are sometimes subject to change due to delivery / supply issues.
