All lunches in school are provided by The Oak Partnership Trust based at West Monkton.

To enable us to provide a consistent and reliable service, all schools in the Trust use the Arbor Parent Portal.

Using Arbor will mean that parents can select menu options, make applicable bookings and pay in one easy process. All payments must be made via the Arbor app. Parents will be able to order and pay for lunches well in advance.

Lunch menus are created by the kitchen on a three-weekly cycle and will be uploaded to Arbor. Menus usually change each term, reflecting seasonal meal choices. Allergen information is printed on the menus for your perusal.

Deadlines

Food orders must be ordered by Sunday 10pm for the week after next. For example: Menu choices for the week commencing 23^rd September must be ordered by Sunday 15^th September at 10pm.

This enables the kitchen to order the correct amount of food and ensures kitchen waste is kept to a minimum.

Please stick to the deadlines stipulated. If you book after the deadline has passed, the system may still let you put an order through, it may result in you paying for a meal we cannot guarantee will be provided.

Costings

If your child is entitled to Universal Infant School Meals (Years R - 2) or Free School Meals, you will not be asked to pay for your child's meals. Children in Y3 - 6 (unless entitled to FSM) will pay £2.70 per meal (from September 2024).

You will need to top up your account to pay for lunches (if eligible) and will be invoiced after each meal sitting.  Please top up in advance if possible to avoid owing for meals. We will monitor this closely and reserve the right to remove meal booking for anyone owing more than two weeks’ worth of meals.
