Lunches

Hot Lunch

In conjunction with West Sussex County Council, Chartwells Catering provide a hot meals service in school.

All Infant children are entitled to a free school meal.

If you wish to check out this term's menu, please go online to: www.parentpay.com

 

All lunches are chosen from the Chartwell menu, by the parent/pupil via Parent Pay. Each pupil will be issued with a login and password, then lunches have to be pre-ordered at least 10 days in advance. You can actually place orders for a whole term. If you forget to order lunches then your child will be offered jacket potatoes for their lunch. Any further details can be obtained by asking at the school office.

If your child has food allergies/intolerance then please contact westsussexspecialdiets@compass-group.co.uk direct to arrange special diet lunches.

Free School Meals 

Although all Infant children are entitled to Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM) if you are on a low income, or on certain benefits, the school may be able to get extra funding for your child. You can benefit from this by having more support for your child's learning (if appropriate) free uniform and free trips.

  • fizzy drinks
  • glass bottles/flasks
