Menu for November-December 2020
The re-introduction of hot lunches seems to be working well and we have managed to introduce more choice this term with a 2 week menu.
We are also pleased to say that we will be offering a whole school Christmas dinner this year as usual on Wednesday 16th December. Please do not book this through Parentpay unless you are Free School Meals or Universal Free School Meals as you will be charged. We will be contacting parents after half-term to book pupils in for Christmas Dinner.
