The School Cook and her team offers a great range of freshly prepared hot meals, sandwiches and puddings each day that conform to Government Nutritional Standards and give children a healthy meal at lunchtime. Please see the current dinner menus at the bottom of the page (on rare occasions dinner choices may change at short notice due to supply issues)
The cost of a School meal is £2.65 per day or £13.25 per week. Upper Foundation, Year 1 and Year 2 receive a free meal under the Government’s Universal Infant Free School Meal Scheme (this however does not qualify them as Pupil Premium children only if they receive Low Income Free School Meals).
Parents receiving Universal Infant Free School Meals can still also claim Low Income Free School Meals which gives the child to other benefits in school. If any parent has an annual gross income of no more than £16,190 and are not claiming any Working Tax Credit you may be entitled. To check please call 01924 305515 or visit Wakefield One and ask for the Free School Meals Department. You can also get a form from the School Office, from the website or download from:

The key to a healthy packed lunch is variety and getting the right balance of foods to provide children with all of the nutrients they need to stay healthy.
A packed lunch made at home can be a healthy and delicious choice and gives a parent or carer control over the foods and ingredients included. We expect that packed lunches are balanced and healthy. For example we expect a sandwich/pasta/wraps/rice, portion of fruit/vegetables and yoghurt balanced meal. Cakes, biscuits and crisps are often high in fat, sugar and salt and although we allow these to be included in a child’s lunchbox this should be part of a healthy diet. Please do not include chocolate bars or fizzy drinks. Water is readily available on all tables.
We are a ‘nut-free’ school as some children may have allergies to nuts and require medication.
