School Meals

Hot School Meals

School lunches are supplied by Local Food Links, an award-winning Dorset based social enterprise that has been making nutritious school meals since 2006. Meals for pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are free and some pupils in Years 3+ may be entitled to means tested free school meals. Meals must be ordered 7 days in advance. If your child has allergies or special dietary requirements please contact
barry.dovell@localfoodlinks.org.uk.

You can order online at a time that suits you, even if your child is receiving free school meals. You can do this by registering at: http://www.localfoodlinks.org.uk/for-parents/

To register, you will need to link your account to your child’s details using an activation code available from the school office.
