All children in Reception and Key Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2) are entitled to Universal Free School Meals. Currently, all other pupils in Key Stage 2 are funded by Newham Council.
Free School Meals are also available to children whose parents receive Income Support, Job Seekers Allowance, Child Tax Credit or the Asylum Seekers Allowance and we would urge all parents to complete an application irrespective of eligibility as this information is checked throughout your child’s time in primary school and could lead to increased funding for the school through Pupil Premium.
You can complete a Free School Meals application through the Local Authority by clicking here.
Packed Lunches
If you decide to send your child in with a packed lunch, please ensure he or she has a healthy and balanced meal.
Packed lunches should not contain cans of fizzy drinks or sweets. We also ask that foods containing nuts are not brought in to school in order to safeguard children with serious nut allergies. Packed lunches should be brought in a suitable lunch box clearly marked with your child’s name.
