All lunches (sandwiches and cooked) are eaten in the main school buildings. ‘Grace’ is said by a member of staff before the children begin their meal. Mealtime Assistants are in charge at lunch time, but will refer to the relevant class teacher or Headteacher if a problem arises. The children again line up in classes by the ICT suite when the bell is rung at 1:10pm. The children then lead directly into their classes.
School lunches are cooked on the premises under the supervision of our resident kitchen manager.
Children may have a school meal or may bring a packed lunch or may go home for a meal. Menus are sent out on a Wednesday prior to the coming week and we ask parents to help their children choose what they would like each day and the form is then returned to us on the Friday. Children can choose to have a cooked meal on one day and bring sandwiches at other times, etc.
We promote Healthy Eating in school and therefore children are not allowed to eat sweets or crisps at playtime. We ask that sweets are not put into their packed lunches and crisps, etc are kept to a minimum. Chewing gum is not allowed at any time.
We operate a healthy Tuck Shop which is managed by a team of pupils. Any profit made is used to purchase new playground equipment.
School meals cost £1.75 a day, and you are asked to send the correct amount of money at the beginning of each week. If your child is absent, meals will be credited for the following week. Cheques are accepted if made out to “Devon County Council”.
Free School meals are available to children whose parents are in receipt of Income Support and Jobseekers Allowance only. Details can be obtained from the school office or the Area Education Office.
